Wolfe Line in Pickaway and Ross Counties, Ohio

In the year 2014 at the time this book was written, we do not know the origin of our Wolf/Wolfe ancestors to America. Our first known Wolfe ancestor was Philip Wolf (1757-1822) who was born in Bedford County, Pennsylvania. According to an historical note found on Ancestry.com, that includes credible data and was quoted from Roots Web’s World Connect Project and was originally shared by the Byard Family tree, “Philip was born in Bedford County, PA which in that year was still Cumberland County, PA, Bedford being formed in 1771. Philip Wolf was a private in the Revolutionary War, Pennsylvania Line 1776. (Pa Arch Ser 3 Vol 25) The history of Pickaway County says that Philip and Margaret moved to Congo Creek on the Pickaway Plains about 1796. At that time the area was in East Ross Township which later became Pickaway County.  Change date:  11 May 2011 at 18:23:21  Sources:    Family History Library   Salt Lake City, Utah 84150”

 

Assuming the above note to be correct, Philip Wolfe, moved west to the Pickaway Plains in Ohio shortly after the Ohio Indian population had been defeated and removed from what would become the State of Ohio within about 7-years. Four generations later the children of Earl Russell and Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe were born in the same area where Philip Wolfe settled. While a few of the Wolfe family members had wandered away from the original Philip Wolfe homestead, it is that geography that serves as the focus of the Wolfe Family tree that is the subject of this book.

 

For the purpose of exploring the Wolfe family history that follows, our position on the Wolfe family timeline is defined by the period occupied by the young family of Earl and Josephine Wolfe and their children. Roughly, this period coincides with about the first two decades of the 20th century.

 

Our journey to explore the Wolfe Family line begins with the Pedigree Chart. So as a reader of this book, imagine yourself being in Pickaway County, Ohio in about 1880, looking back in time at the Wolfe family line. The youngest ancestor that you encounter is Earl Russell Wolfe and his wife, Josephine Sybil Worthen. While it would be wonderful if we could somehow actually view that history, we cannot. So, our next-best option is to view the Pedigree Chart that follows. In this chart, each person in direct lines of our Wolfe, Worthen, and related families is represented by a block or box that contains their name and enough additional information to precisely identify them. By studying these charts, we can develop an overall picture of the Wolfe family line.

 

Since the purpose of the Pedigree Chart is to present only the direct lineage (parent-to-child) relationship, this chart does not include all of the aunts, uncles, and cousins who are also members of the family. These other members of the family, to the extent that we know who they are, will be listed later on the Outline Descendants Chart.

Wolfe Family Ancestors

 

 The section that follows is the Ahnentafel Report for Earl Russell Wolfe. The Pedigree Chart that precedes this section can be viewed as a graphical index of this Ahnentafel Report. Incidentally, the word “Ahnentafel,” means “pedigree” in German. As with the Pedigree chart, the reader can visualize standing at our focus point of the Wolfe timeline and looking back into history at the array of preceding ancestors.

 

 Beginning with Earl Russell and his wife Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe, this section contains everything that we know about the direct line of ancestors back to Philip Wolfe (1757-1822) who was born in1757.

 

 We have no photographs of many of these ancestors since photography was not yet invented. There are no known portraits of any of the ancestors. Also, it is generally true that the further back in history we go, the less information can be found.

 

 Where any relevant information could be found it was included in this Ahnentafel Report section. For this reason, bits of information such as census reports, birth and death records, marriage records, obituaries, etc. have been included in this section. By studying these records the reader can frequently find information about an ancestor such as where they were born, lived and died; what kinds of work they did; the number and names of their children; and much, much more. In more recent years, relatives or reporters may have written essays, newspaper articles, impressions or comments that help identify and characterize an ancestor. All such information has been included.

 

 Keep in mind as you read this material that the exploration of each of the four major family lines (Wolfe, List, Fischer, and Dresbach) has been organized in a similar way. Also a similar organization is used in the case of spousal Wolfe members’ family lines (Worthen, Foster, List, Fischer, Dresbach). The organization of the sections of this book is described beginning on page iv.

Earl Russell Wolfe was the son of Benjamin Franklin and Clara Wells Bunn Wolfe.  He married Josephine Sybil Worthen.

 

      * Note: Throughout this book, the author has attempted to include references such as census, birth and death notices, etc. as accurately as possible. If entries or data are known to be in error, the correct information will be added in brackets, also.

We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to research and make notes about some of the attributes and characteristics of her ancestors. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Earl Russell Wolfe.

Earl was a big man standing 6-feet and 1-inch tall. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was a farmer most of his life except for a short time following his marriage to Josephine Worthen when he worked for the railroad. He loved horses, was a good checker player, smoked cigars and collected Indian relics such as arrow heads and stone axes.

On January 27, 2005 Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle (1943-2012) interviewed her father, Roger Earl Wolfe, about Earl Russell Wolfe. When Suzanne asked Roger about his father's health, he replied: "He (Earl Russell Wolfe) had poor health when I was small. I could hardly reach him when I started shaving him. He had had a stroke and his right hand was paralized. I was glad when the safety razor was available. I would cut off his face-mole about once a month with the old razor. [Suzanne's note: This was at Fox Farm - 1926-19??. Roger was six in 1926.]

His brother Russell and sister Dorothy both married their spouces in 1929. So by 1929 Roger was the oldest boy at home and he had much responsibility at an early age. He said his mother [Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe] worked terribly hard.

Roger went to California in 1938. He was there 16 years. Josephine said Russell was laid off from his job, lost his new house and savings. He was helped out by Earl who rented a farm for him. For 3-years he used his father's equipment. Earl told Roger he was sorry he couldn't help him more, financially.

Roger remembers his dad, Earl, having three cars while he was still living at home: #1 (an unknown model), #2 a Rio, #3 a Hup mobile. For the first car he went with a salesman to Detroit and another man. They brought  3 cars home - each driving a car. It was the first time driving it.

At the end of his life, Earl became quite difficult and aggressive. He became progressively abusive toward his wife, Josephine, and eventually was admitted to the Columbus State Hospital where he died on 27 March 1951.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was the daughter of Aaron Brazil and Elizabeth Morris Worthen. She married Earl Russell Wolfe.

 

         Research can usually turn-up a few records that tell us about some key events of our ancestors lives such as where they lived, important dates and their relationship to other family members and friends. But the personal details of our ancestors are usually very difficult or even impossible to access unless they have been documented for us by others who knew them and shared their lives. We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to produce such a record. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was a small lady measuring 5-feet 3-inches tall. She was very pretty, even in her older years. She had brown eyes and brown hair. She was soft spoken and intelligent. In spite of her small size her life as a farm wife and her circumstances required that she be strong, creative and hard working; a role that she performed admirably.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was born 1 Oct 1884 in Meigs County, Ohio and died 31 Dec 1977 in Pickaway Co., Ohio. Her parents were Aaron Benjamin Worthen and Elizabeth Morris. Her mother, Elizabeth Morris Worthen, died on 5 July 1894 at the age of 38-years. Josephine was only 9-years and 9-months old when her mother died. After her mother's death, Josephine's grandmother, Agnes Moore Morris, helped care for the Aaron B. Worthen family. Her care was limited, however, because she lived 3-miles away. In 4-short-years from Josephine's mother's death, her grandmother Agnes also died. Aaron had remarried and shortly after her grandmother Agnes' death, Josephine, then about 14-years old, went to live with her Uncle James Worthen's family. Josephine apparently quit school when she moved to the James Worthen household leaving her with only an 8th grade education. James, her father's brother, was over 19-years older than Aaron. James was also a farmer and had a large family of his own. It was while she lived with her Uncle James that Josephine met Earl Russell Wolfe who was a friend of James Worthen. Josephine and Earl married on 22 Jun 1902 in Denver, Ohio. Josephine was 17-years and 8 months old when she and Earl married. Earl was 23-years and 8-months old.

Earl Russell Wolfe was the son of Benjamin Franklin and Clara Wells Bunn Wolfe.  He married Josephine Sybil Worthen.

 

      * Note: Throughout this book, the author has attempted to include references such as census, birth and death notices, etc. as accurately as possible. If entries or data are known to be in error, the correct information will be added in brackets, also.

We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to research and make notes about some of the attributes and characteristics of her ancestors. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Earl Russell Wolfe.

Earl was a big man standing 6-feet and 1-inch tall. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was a farmer most of his life except for a short time following his marriage to Josephine Worthen when he worked for the railroad. He loved horses, was a good checker player, smoked cigars and collected Indian relics such as arrow heads and stone axes.

On January 27, 2005 Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle (1943-2012) interviewed her father, Roger Earl Wolfe, about Earl Russell Wolfe. When Suzanne asked Roger about his father's health, he replied: "He (Earl Russell Wolfe) had poor health when I was small. I could hardly reach him when I started shaving him. He had had a stroke and his right hand was paralized. I was glad when the safety razor was available. I would cut off his face-mole about once a month with the old razor. [Suzanne's note: This was at Fox Farm - 1926-19??. Roger was six in 1926.]

His brother Russell and sister Dorothy both married their spouces in 1929. So by 1929 Roger was the oldest boy at home and he had much responsibility at an early age. He said his mother [Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe] worked terribly hard.

Roger went to California in 1938. He was there 16 years. Josephine said Russell was laid off from his job, lost his new house and savings. He was helped out by Earl who rented a farm for him. For 3-years he used his father's equipment. Earl told Roger he was sorry he couldn't help him more, financially.

Roger remembers his dad, Earl, having three cars while he was still living at home: #1 (an unknown model), #2 a Rio, #3 a Hup mobile. For the first car he went with a salesman to Detroit and another man. They brought  3 cars home - each driving a car. It was the first time driving it.

At the end of his life, Earl became quite difficult and aggressive. He became progressively abusive toward his wife, Josephine, and eventually was admitted to the Columbus State Hospital where he died on 27 March 1951.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was the daughter of Aaron Brazil and Elizabeth Morris Worthen. She married Earl Russell Wolfe.

 

         Research can usually turn-up a few records that tell us about some key events of our ancestors lives such as where they lived, important dates and their relationship to other family members and friends. But the personal details of our ancestors are usually very difficult or even impossible to access unless they have been documented for us by others who knew them and shared their lives. We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to produce such a record. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was a small lady measuring 5-feet 3-inches tall. She was very pretty, even in her older years. She had brown eyes and brown hair. She was soft spoken and intelligent. In spite of her small size her life as a farm wife and her circumstances required that she be strong, creative and hard working; a role that she performed admirably.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was born 1 Oct 1884 in Meigs County, Ohio and died 31 Dec 1977 in Pickaway Co., Ohio. Her parents were Aaron Benjamin Worthen and Elizabeth Morris. Her mother, Elizabeth Morris Worthen, died on 5 July 1894 at the age of 38-years. Josephine was only 9-years and 9-months old when her mother died. After her mother's death, Josephine's grandmother, Agnes Moore Morris, helped care for the Aaron B. Worthen family. Her care was limited, however, because she lived 3-miles away. In 4-short-years from Josephine's mother's death, her grandmother Agnes also died. Aaron had remarried and shortly after her grandmother Agnes' death, Josephine, then about 14-years old, went to live with her Uncle James Worthen's family. Josephine apparently quit school when she moved to the James Worthen household leaving her with only an 8th grade education. James, her father's brother, was over 19-years older than Aaron. James was also a farmer and had a large family of his own. It was while she lived with her Uncle James that Josephine met Earl Russell Wolfe who was a friend of James Worthen. Josephine and Earl married on 22 Jun 1902 in Denver, Ohio. Josephine was 17-years and 8 months old when she and Earl married. Earl was 23-years and 8-months old.

      * Note: Throughout this book, the author has attempted to include references such as census, birth and death notices, etc. as accurately as possible. If entries or data are known to be in error, the correct information will be added in brackets, also.

We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to research and make notes about some of the attributes and characteristics of her ancestors. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Earl Russell Wolfe.

Earl was a big man standing 6-feet and 1-inch tall. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was a farmer most of his life except for a short time following his marriage to Josephine Worthen when he worked for the railroad. He loved horses, was a good checker player, smoked cigars and collected Indian relics such as arrow heads and stone axes.

On January 27, 2005 Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle (1943-2012) interviewed her father, Roger Earl Wolfe, about Earl Russell Wolfe. When Suzanne asked Roger about his father's health, he replied: "He (Earl Russell Wolfe) had poor health when I was small. I could hardly reach him when I started shaving him. He had had a stroke and his right hand was paralized. I was glad when the safety razor was available. I would cut off his face-mole about once a month with the old razor. [Suzanne's note: This was at Fox Farm - 1926-19??. Roger was six in 1926.]

His brother Russell and sister Dorothy both married their spouces in 1929. So by 1929 Roger was the oldest boy at home and he had much responsibility at an early age. He said his mother [Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe] worked terribly hard.

Roger went to California in 1938. He was there 16 years. Josephine said Russell was laid off from his job, lost his new house and savings. He was helped out by Earl who rented a farm for him. For 3-years he used his father's equipment. Earl told Roger he was sorry he couldn't help him more, financially.

Roger remembers his dad, Earl, having three cars while he was still living at home: #1 (an unknown model), #2 a Rio, #3 a Hup mobile. For the first car he went with a salesman to Detroit and another man. They brought  3 cars home - each driving a car. It was the first time driving it.

At the end of his life, Earl became quite difficult and aggressive. He became progressively abusive toward his wife, Josephine, and eventually was admitted to the Columbus State Hospital where he died on 27 March 1951.

Notes for Josephine Sybil Worthen:

Josephine Sybil Worthen was the daughter of Aaron Brazil and Elizabeth Morris Worthen. She married Earl Russell Wolfe.

 

         Research can usually turn-up a few records that tell us about some key events of our ancestors lives such as where they lived, important dates and their relationship to other family members and friends. But the personal details of our ancestors are usually very difficult or even impossible to access unless they have been documented for us by others who knew them and shared their lives. We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to produce such a record. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was a small lady measuring 5-feet 3-inches tall. She was very pretty, even in her older years. She had brown eyes and brown hair. She was soft spoken and intelligent. In spite of her small size her life as a farm wife and her circumstances required that she be strong, creative and hard working; a role that she performed admirably.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was born 1 Oct 1884 in Meigs County, Ohio and died 31 Dec 1977 in Pickaway Co., Ohio. Her parents were Aaron Benjamin Worthen and Elizabeth Morris. Her mother, Elizabeth Morris Worthen, died on 5 July 1894 at the age of 38-years. Josephine was only 9-years and 9-months old when her mother died. After her mother's death, Josephine's grandmother, Agnes Moore Morris, helped care for the Aaron B. Worthen family. Her care was limited, however, because she lived 3-miles away. In 4-short-years from Josephine's mother's death, her grandmother Agnes also died. Aaron had remarried and shortly after her grandmother Agnes' death, Josephine, then about 14-years old, went to live with her Uncle James Worthen's family. Josephine apparently quit school when she moved to the James Worthen household leaving her with only an 8th grade education. James, her father's brother, was over 19-years older than Aaron. James was also a farmer and had a large family of his own. It was while she lived with her Uncle James that Josephine met Earl Russell Wolfe who was a friend of James Worthen. Josephine and Earl married on 22 Jun 1902 in Denver, Ohio. Josephine was 17-years and 8 months old when she and Earl married. Earl was 23-years and 8-months old.

Neil was describing memorabilia, information and rememberences that he has of his Wolfe family.  "When I was little, I used to look through a botany textbook that Grandma Wolfe kept around.  At some point, I asked her if I could have it, and she said okay.  The book is Gray’s School and Field Book of Botany, published in 1857.  It is signed by Clara’s son, George C. Wolfe.  The fly page reads, “G. C. Wolfe, Kingston, Ohio, March 7 - 1887"

 

The following is from an article in the Spring 2010 issue of the Pickaway Quarterly, the newsletter of the Pickaway County Historical Society, titled "Who Was Clara?" written by Carolyn Weigand:

"An obituary tells of Clara [Clara Wells Bunn (1843-1931), mother of George C. Wolfe] traveling to be with the eldest son who was seriously ill in the recently opened West. Part way into her journey, she received notification that he had lost his life. She continued on to bring his body back to Ohio for burial. This was in 1892."

 

Obituary of George C. Wolfe from a Circleville Newspapler, 1892

Mr. and Mrs. F.B. Wolfe received the sad intelligence the 24th inst., that their son George was seriously ill at Elreno, Oklahoma Territory. Mrs. Wolfe at once took the train or Elreno, but scarcely had she started till a second telegram came announcing his death. Mrs. Wolfe was intercepted at Vincennes, Ind., by dispatch expecting she would return but she resolutely pushed on, reaching Elreno the 27th. She immediately arranged to bring the corpse home for burial and arrived here Saturday at 3 p.m. The corpse was taken to undertaker Shriver and prepared for burial, from thence to the home of the parents where the funeral occurred Sunday afternoon, Dr. Elliot officiating, after which the remains were interred at the Mount Pleasant cemetery. George left home 18 months ago for Kansas where he has been employed as a teacher near Lawrence. But a few weeks ago he went to Oklahoma Territory to enter the race in the opening of the new territory. He got his claim and on he way back took with a chill. In a few hours medical aid was summoned but in vain. He grew worse in spite of treatment and died from paralysis of the heart. In the death of George Wolfe the family has lost a loving son and an affectionate brother; Pickaway county has lost one of her promising teachers and citizens. His life needs no eulogy other than that marked by the host of sympathizing friends at his grave. The sorrow stricken family have the deepest sympathy of the entire community. The deceased was 26 years of age and was one of the charter members of the K.P. [Knights of Pythias] lodge here.

The Wolfe Family Outline Descendant Report

 

 One of the limitations of the reader ‘standing’ at a focus-point on the family timeline and viewing direct ancestors as we gaze back in history, is that we miss the aunts, uncles and cousins that help make up the family line. One way to overcome this limitation is to go to the oldest known ancestor on the timeline and view the family as his/her descendants. That is, view the family members on the timeline from the earliest known, or oldest, member, to the newest, current member. A chart that views the family members in this way is called an Outline Descendant Report. It is called an “Outline” report because it does not include all of the details of each individual. Instead it list the names and selected information (date-of-birth, marriage, death, and location of each when they are available) of all known family members who are the descendants of that oldest known ancestor.

 

 The order in which descendants are arranged on the Outline Descendant Report indicates their relationship to the oldest known ancestor, and therefore their relationship to each other. On this report the oldest known ancestor is identified as “Generation 1.” His/her children are identified as “Generation 2,” and so on.

 

 The section that follows is the Outline Descendant Report for Philip Wolfe who was born around 1757.

The Worthen Family Ahnentafel Report

 

 The section that follows is the Ahnentafel Report for Josephine Sybil WorthenWolfe. The Pedigree Chart that appeared earlier on page 2 can be viewed as a graphical index of this Ahnentafel Report, also. Recall that the word “Ahnentafel,” means “pedigree” in German. As with the Pedigree chart, the reader can visualize standing at our focus-point of the Wolfe timeline and looking back into history at the array of preceding ancestors. In this case, we are looking back the Worthen ancestral line. Beginning with Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe, this section contains everything that we know about the direct line of Worthen ancestors back to George Worthen (1604-1642).

 

 Without the benefit of photographs, portraits or other personal information we are dependent on information such as census reports, birth and death records, marriage records, obituaries, etc. to help develop a profile of each ancestor. By studying these records the reader can frequently find information about an ancestor such as when and where they were born, lived and died; what kinds of work they did; the number and names of their children; and much, much more.

 

 Keep in mind as you read this material that the exploration of each of the four major family lines (Wolfe, List, Fischer, and Dresbach) has been organized in a similar way. Also a similar organization is used in the case of spousal Wolfe members’ family lines (Worthen, Foster, List, Fischer, Dresbach). The organization of the sections of this book is described beginning on page iv.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was the daughter of Aaron Brazil and Elizabeth Morris Worthen. She married Earl Russell Wolfe.

 

         Research can usually turn-up a few records that tell us about some key events of our ancestors lives such as where they lived, important dates and their relationship to other family members and friends. But the personal details of our ancestors are usually very difficult or even impossible to access unless they have been documented for us by others who knew them and shared their lives. We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to produce such a record. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was a small lady measuring 5-feet 3-inches tall. She was very pretty, even in her older years. She had brown eyes and brown hair. She was soft spoken and intelligent. In spite of her small size her life as a farm wife and her circumstances required that she be strong, creative and hard working; a role that she performed admirably.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was born 1 Oct 1884 in Meigs County, Ohio and died 31 Dec 1977 in Pickaway Co., Ohio. Her parents were Aaron Benjamin Worthen and Elizabeth Morris. Her mother, Elizabeth Morris Worthen, died on 5 July 1894 at the age of 38-years. Josephine was only 9-years and 9-months old when her mother died. After her mother's death, Josephine's grandmother, Agnes Moore Morris, helped care for the Aaron B. Worthen family. Her care was limited, however, because she lived 3-miles away. In 4-short-years from Josephine's mother's death, her grandmother Agnes also died. Aaron had remarried and shortly after her grandmother Agnes' death, Josephine, then about 14-years old, went to live with her Uncle James Worthen's family. Josephine apparently quit school when she moved to the James Worthen household leaving her with only an 8th grade education. James, her father's brother, was over 19-years older than Aaron. James was also a farmer and had a large family of his own. It was while she lived with her Uncle James that Josephine met Earl Russell Wolfe who was a friend of James Worthen. Josephine and Earl married on 22 Jun 1902 in Denver, Ohio. Josephine was 17-years and 8 months old when she and Earl married. Earl was 23-years and 8-months old.

Notes for Earl Russell Wolfe:

Photos in Album, Pages: 3,6,8,10-13,62,63,71

 

Earl Russell Wolfe was the son of Benjamin Franklin and Clara Wells Bunn Wolfe.  He married Josephine Sybil Worthen.

 

      * Note: Throughout this book, the author has attempted to include references such as census, birth and death notices, etc. as accurately as possible. If entries or data are known to be in error, the correct information will be added in brackets, also.

We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to research and make notes about some of the attributes and characteristics of her ancestors. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Earl Russell Wolfe.

Earl was a big man standing 6-feet and 1-inch tall. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was a farmer most of his life except for a short time following his marriage to Josephine Worthen when he worked for the railroad. He loved horses, was a good checker player, smoked cigars and collected Indian relics such as arrow heads and stone axes.

On January 27, 2005 Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle (1943-2012) interviewed her father, Roger Earl Wolfe, about Earl Russell Wolfe. When Suzanne asked Roger about his father's health, he replied: "He (Earl Russell Wolfe) had poor health when I was small. I could hardly reach him when I started shaving him. He had had a stroke and his right hand was paralized. I was glad when the safety razor was available. I would cut off his face-mole about once a month with the old razor. [Suzanne's note: This was at Fox Farm - 1926-19??. Roger was six in 1926.]

His brother Russell and sister Dorothy both married their spouces in 1929. So by 1929 Roger was the oldest boy at home and he had much responsibility at an early age. He said his mother [Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe] worked terribly hard.

Roger went to California in 1938. He was there 16 years. Josephine said Russell was laid off from his job, lost his new house and savings. He was helped out by Earl who rented a farm for him. For 3-years he used his father's equipment. Earl told Roger he was sorry he couldn't help him more, financially.

Roger remembers his dad, Earl, having three cars while he was still living at home: #1 (an unknown model), #2 a Rio, #3 a Hup mobile. For the first car he went with a salesman to Detroit and another man. They brought  3 cars home - each driving a car. It was the first time driving it.

At the end of his life, Earl became quite difficult and aggressive. He became progressively abusive toward his wife, Josephine, and eventually was admitted to the Columbus State Hospital where he died on 27 March 1951.

         Research can usually turn-up a few records that tell us about some key events of our ancestors lives such as where they lived, important dates and their relationship to other family members and friends. But the personal details of our ancestors are usually very difficult or even impossible to access unless they have been documented for us by others who knew them and shared their lives. We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to produce such a record. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was a small lady measuring 5-feet 3-inches tall. She was very pretty, even in her older years. She had brown eyes and brown hair. She was soft spoken and intelligent. In spite of her small size her life as a farm wife and her circumstances required that she be strong, creative and hard working; a role that she performed admirably.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was born 1 Oct 1884 in Meigs County, Ohio and died 31 Dec 1977 in Pickaway Co., Ohio. Her parents were Aaron Benjamin Worthen and Elizabeth Morris. Her mother, Elizabeth Morris Worthen, died on 5 July 1894 at the age of 38-years. Josephine was only 9-years and 9-months old when her mother died. After her mother's death, Josephine's grandmother, Agnes Moore Morris, helped care for the Aaron B. Worthen family. Her care was limited, however, because she lived 3-miles away. In 4-short-years from Josephine's mother's death, her grandmother Agnes also died. Aaron had remarried and shortly after her grandmother Agnes' death, Josephine, then about 14-years old, went to live with her Uncle James Worthen's family. Josephine apparently quit school when she moved to the James Worthen household leaving her with only an 8th grade education. James, her father's brother, was over 19-years older than Aaron. James was also a farmer and had a large family of his own. It was while she lived with her Uncle James that Josephine met Earl Russell Wolfe who was a friend of James Worthen. Josephine and Earl married on 22 Jun 1902 in Denver, Ohio. Josephine was 17-years and 8 months old when she and Earl married. Earl was 23-years and 8-months old.

Notes for Earl Russell Wolfe:

Earl Russell Wolfe was the son of Benjamin Franklin and Clara Wells Bunn Wolfe.  He married Josephine Sybil Worthen.

 

      * Note: Throughout this book, the author has attempted to include references such as census, birth and death notices, etc. as accurately as possible. If entries or data are known to be in error, the correct information will be added in brackets, also.

We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to research and make notes about some of the attributes and characteristics of her ancestors. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Earl Russell Wolfe.

Earl was a big man standing 6-feet and 1-inch tall. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was a farmer most of his life except for a short time following his marriage to Josephine Worthen when he worked for the railroad. He loved horses, was a good checker player, smoked cigars and collected Indian relics such as arrow heads and stone axes.

On January 27, 2005 Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle (1943-2012) interviewed her father, Roger Earl Wolfe, about Earl Russell Wolfe. When Suzanne asked Roger about his father's health, he replied: "He (Earl Russell Wolfe) had poor health when I was small. I could hardly reach him when I started shaving him. He had had a stroke and his right hand was paralized. I was glad when the safety razor was available. I would cut off his face-mole about once a month with the old razor. [Suzanne's note: This was at Fox Farm - 1926-19??. Roger was six in 1926.]

His brother Russell and sister Dorothy both married their spouces in 1929. So by 1929 Roger was the oldest boy at home and he had much responsibility at an early age. He said his mother [Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe] worked terribly hard.

Roger went to California in 1938. He was there 16 years. Josephine said Russell was laid off from his job, lost his new house and savings. He was helped out by Earl who rented a farm for him. For 3-years he used his father's equipment. Earl told Roger he was sorry he couldn't help him more, financially.

Roger remembers his dad, Earl, having three cars while he was still living at home: #1 (an unknown model), #2 a Rio, #3 a Hup mobile. For the first car he went with a salesman to Detroit and another man. They brought  3 cars home - each driving a car. It was the first time driving it.

At the end of his life, Earl became quite difficult and aggressive. He became progressively abusive toward his wife, Josephine, and eventually was admitted to the Columbus State Hospital where he died on 27 March 1951.

         Research can usually turn-up a few records that tell us about some key events of our ancestors lives such as where they lived, important dates and their relationship to other family members and friends. But the personal details of our ancestors are usually very difficult or even impossible to access unless they have been documented for us by others who knew them and shared their lives. We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to produce such a record. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was a small lady measuring 5-feet 3-inches tall. She was very pretty, even in her older years. She had brown eyes and brown hair. She was soft spoken and intelligent. In spite of her small size her life as a farm wife and her circumstances required that she be strong, creative and hard working; a role that she performed admirably.

Josephine Sybil Worthen was born 1 Oct 1884 in Meigs County, Ohio and died 31 Dec 1977 in Pickaway Co., Ohio. Her parents were Aaron Benjamin Worthen and Elizabeth Morris. Her mother, Elizabeth Morris Worthen, died on 5 July 1894 at the age of 38-years. Josephine was only 9-years and 9-months old when her mother died. After her mother's death, Josephine's grandmother, Agnes Moore Morris, helped care for the Aaron B. Worthen family. Her care was limited, however, because she lived 3-miles away. In 4-short-years from Josephine's mother's death, her grandmother Agnes also died. Aaron had remarried and shortly after her grandmother Agnes' death, Josephine, then about 14-years old, went to live with her Uncle James Worthen's family. Josephine apparently quit school when she moved to the James Worthen household leaving her with only an 8th grade education. James, her father's brother, was over 19-years older than Aaron. James was also a farmer and had a large family of his own. It was while she lived with her Uncle James that Josephine met Earl Russell Wolfe who was a friend of James Worthen. Josephine and Earl married on 22 Jun 1902 in Denver, Ohio. Josephine was 17-years and 8 months old when she and Earl married. Earl was 23-years and 8-months old.

Notes for Earl Russell Wolfe:

Earl Russell Wolfe was the son of Benjamin Franklin and Clara Wells Bunn Wolfe.  He married Josephine Sybil Worthen.

We are fortunate that Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle, daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie Dresbach Wolfe, had the interest and took the time to research and make notes about some of the attributes and characteristics of her ancestors. Suzanne has left us some details which when combined with photos give us a little more insight into the life of Earl Russell Wolfe.

Earl was a big man standing 6-feet and 1-inch tall. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was a farmer most of his life except for a short time following his marriage to Josephine Worthen when he worked for the railroad. He loved horses, was a good checker player, smoked cigars and collected Indian relics such as arrow heads and stone axes.

On January 27, 2005 Suzanne Kay Wolfe Mettle (1943-2012) interviewed her father, Roger Earl Wolfe, about Earl Russell Wolfe. When Suzanne asked Roger about his father's health, he replied: "He (Earl Russell Wolfe) had poor health when I was small. I could hardly reach him when I started shaving him. He had had a stroke and his right hand was paralized. I was glad when the safety razor was available. I would cut off his face-mole about once a month with the old razor. [Suzanne's note: This was at Fox Farm - 1926-19??. Roger was six in 1926.]

His brother Russell and sister Dorothy both married their spouces in 1929. So by 1929 Roger was the oldest boy at home and he had much responsibility at an early age. He said his mother [Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe] worked terribly hard.

Roger went to California in 1938. He was there 16 years. Josephine said Russell was laid off from his job, lost his new house and savings. He was helped out by Earl who rented a farm for him. For 3-years he used his father's equipment. Earl told Roger he was sorry he couldn't help him more, financially.

Roger remembers his dad, Earl, having three cars while he was still living at home: #1 (an unknown model), #2 a Rio, #3 a Hup mobile. For the first car he went with a salesman to Detroit and another man. They brought  3 cars home - each driving a car. It was the first time driving it.

At the end of his life, Earl became quite difficult and aggressive. He became progressively abusive toward his wife, Josephine, and eventually was admitted to the Columbus State Hospital where he died on 27 March 1951.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES of James Worthen and sons, James H. and George B Worthen [source unknown]

Worthen Bros. is the firm name under which two popular and enterprising young merchants are conducting a general mercantile business at Kingston. They are sons of James Worthen, a merchant and farmer, but best known as one of the most extensive fruit-growers in Ross county. A native of Meigs county, where he grew up and was educated, he removed to Pike county in 1868 and came to Ross county in 1882, settling in Huntington township where he soon came to the front as a skillful horticulturist of the one hundred and sixty acres of land owned by him, seventy acres are planted in fruit trees, principally apple and peach, and this is one of the finest orchards in the county.

Though Democratic in his views, James Worthen has been too busy a man to seek office, but held the position of justice of the peace for eight years. He is a member of the Masonic order, and connected with the lodge at Waverly. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Bazel and Mary A. (Tuttle) Carter, natives of Meigs county who went to Missouri and died there in 1892.

Charles W., eldest son of James and Elizabeth Worthen, was born in Meigs county, O., December 17, 1867, attended Hurdland college in Missouri and afterward qualified himself for a business career by a course at the Commercial college in Lexington, Ky., where he was graduated in 1892. He learned telegraphy and was engaged as an operator for six years, after which he associated himself with his brother in the mercantile business. He is clerk of the board of health and member of several fraternal orders, including Chillicothe lodge, No. 28, Knights of Pythias, and Kingston lodge, Independent Order of Odd Fellows. May 30, 1890, he was married to Miss Katie Overly, of Green township.

George B. Worthen was born in Meigs county April 24, 1871, and like his brother Charles was educated at the Hurdland (Mo.) college and the Lexington (Ky.) business college. In 1893, he established a store at Denver in Ross county, and conducted it alone until 1897, when his brother Charles W. joined him in forming the firm of Worthen Bros. In 1899 they decided to remove to King-ston, in Green township, where they soon established a good business, carrying a fine line of general merchandise and enjoying a liberal trade with the surrounding territory. George B., the junior member of the, firm, served as postmaster for several years during his residence at Denver and was also clerk of the township. He was married, April 15, 1902, to Miss Ethel Titus, of Kingston.

The Worthen Family Outline Descendant Report

 

 One of the limitations of the reader ‘standing’ at a focus-point on the family timeline and viewing direct ancestors as we gaze back in history, is that we miss the aunts, uncles and cousins that help make up the family line. One way to overcome this limitation is to go to the oldest known ancestor on the timeline and view the family as his/her descendants. That is, view the family members on the timeline from the earliest known, or oldest, member, to the newest, current member. A chart that views the family members in this way is called an Outline Descendant Report. It is called an ”Outline” report because it does not include all of the details of each individual. Instead it list the names and selected information (date-of-birth, marriage, death, and location of each when they are available) of all known family members who are the descendants of that oldest known ancestor.

 

 The order in which descendants are arranged on the Outline Descendant Report indicates their relationship to the oldest known ancestor, and therefore their relationship to each other. On this report the oldest known ancestor is identified as “Generation 1.” His/her children are identified as “Generation 2,” and so on.

 

 The section that follows is the Outline Descendant Report for George Worthen (1604-1642).

Wolfe-Foster Family Line

 

 We believe that the first American immigrant of the Foster line may have been Benjamin Foster (?-1758) from England. While Benjamin Foster is the first known ancestor in the Foster line we cannot be certain that he was the immigrant ancestor. The reason for the uncertainty is that while we find his name as the father of Jabez Foster (1754-1818) and the husband of Sarah French II, Jabez’s mother, little else is known of him. We know his year of death only because he was involved in the expedition against the French at Crown Point in the French and Indian War and was killed in that battle.

 

 Jabez, son of Benjamin and Sarah French II Foster was born in Connecticut in 1754 which could be where the family first settled in America. The Jabez family moved to Vermont sometime before 1786 where they remained for 3-generations.

 

 Sometime between 1850 and 1860 Benjamin Foster’s great grandson, Charles Foster (1812-1868) moved his entire family of his wife, Lavina Thompson Foster, and their 5 children from Vermont to the Pickaway Plains. One of Charles Foster’s sons, Alson Coleman Foster (1844-1910), was the father of Mary Helen Foster (1905-1996) who married into the Wolfe family in 1929. Mary Foster Wolfe and her husband Russell Franklin Wolfe were both born in Pickaway County, Ohio. Except for a brief period following their marriage, they lived their full lives and died within a few miles of their birthplace.

 

 The Pedigree Chart that follows explores the Foster family line.

Mary Helen Foster Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My mother was an attractive woman with short dark hair.  She was a flapper in the 20's and wore a lace flapper style dress in navy blue for her wedding to my Dad on June 15, 1929.  After attending Normal School for one year she was an elementary teacher and taught school until Lois was born in 1931.  Mama had many talents, skills and patience and taught and helped us her whole life.  She also had a good sense of humor and said things that made us laugh.  She taught Lois and me to embroider, to sew, knit and crochet.  We made candy and popcorn balls together during the holidays, and baked and decorated cookies and colored and decorated Easter eggs.  We females did the weekly wash and hung loads of washing on the clothes line, and we did the weekly house cleaning on Saturdays and tons of dishwashing.  Lois and I often sang while we washed and dried dishes, I think to pass the time more quickly.  Our Mother also helped our brothers make kites or puppets and rubber band guns and other projects.  She seldom sat down.

 

In the summer she canned food from the garden and the kitchen would be hot and steamy with boiling jars that had been stored in the basement, and pots of bubbly tomatoes, beans, fruits or jams that had to be sealed in the jars in boiling water.  And she sewed and knitted many clothes for her girls and grandchildren, as well as sewing pillow cases, tea towels, doll clothes, teddy bears, puppets and more.  She encouraged our arts and crafts and school work.  Our family always went to all the Kingston basketball games especially since all my brothers played basketball, so Friday nights were busy getting everyone fed and off to the games.

 

She was an active member of the PTA, Eastern Star, the garden club and church circle.  She helped with our 4-H clubs, our Brownie and Girl Scout troops, and other groups and projects where she was needed, and was happy, non-complaining and smiling with it all.  Every one loved her as she did them.

Russell Franklin Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My Dad (we called Daddy) was a tall, thick chested man with lots of dark hair and I always considered him very handsome.  He was kind and quiet and smart.  He really liked keeping up with world news and local events and had lots of information which he often didn't volunteer to share, though he would if asked and give his opinions when engaged in conversation.  He could fix anything - cars, washers, toasters, bicycles, lawn mowers, anything at all I think, and always had a project going in the garage with zillions of tools.  He was always generous and willing to help out.  In the 50's he invited a family of three to live in their house trailer in our back yard in Kingston for several months, as they were having a hard time.

 

When I was three our family moved from the Wolfe farm on Wolfe Road to Kingston, Ohio where my parents had bought an eight room house.  Daddy was still remodeling the kitchen and back porch, mending the roof and digging a well in the back yard when we moved in.  Granddad Hickle, Mary's stepfather, assisted Daddy in the house remodel.  Daddy was a hard working man all his life.

 

He taught my brothers how to fix their bikes and cars and build things, like a cart which my brother Philip used for hauling corn cobs or leaves or whatever needed to be moved.  He teased my sister and me a little and said one of us was smart and the other was pretty.  We never knew which was which.  He paid a nickel to me for every lost button I sewed on his shirts, and I collected the lost change which fell from his pockets when he finally took a rest on the couch in the evenings.  Once I painted his toenails red when he was napping, and he let it wear off rather than use remover.

 

My parents liked traveling occasionally and I think a fun part for Daddy was planning the trips and studying the maps and travel information.  He really enjoyed finding interesting places to visit and some of those stops were on their trips to California when they visited me, or to Florida or Michigan when they visited Philip's and Lois's families.  He liked to go fishing on the weekends occasionally in his small motor boat and when I was a kid he sometimes would bring home catfish he'd caught in the river and our Mother would fry them.  In their retirement they had intended to travel more but that plan was cut short when Daddy was shot by a mentally unstable neighbor in 1979.

 

Sometimes Daddy played his old trombone or violin for us.  He also had a drum he had played in the Kingston Community Band which was later donated to the Ross County Museum.  We kids always liked that he played and we found it fun.

 

Daddy was on the Kingston City Council for years, and he was a Mason in the Kingston lodge, and active in The Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian Church.  He was respected and loved by the towns people and his Masonic brothers as well as the people he worked with, and even more so by his wife Mary and family.

"Dad,

When I was little, I used to look through a botany textbook that Grandma Wolfe kept around.  At some point, I asked her if I could have it, and she said okay.  The book is Gray’s School and Field Book of Botany, published in 1857.  It is signed by Clara’s son, George C. Wolfe.  The fly page reads, “G. C. Wolfe, Kingston, Ohio, March 7 - 1887 -“  If my reading of the family tree is correct, George had five years left to make it to Elreno before he died, and he didn’t take the book.

I also have some school records and memorabilia that belonged to Grandpa Wolfe (Russell Franklin).  Some of the school documents are signed by Josephine Sybil Worthen (as Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe).  One of these is a largish envelope sent from a seed company to Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe for the Camp Lewis Farm.  I also have Pickaway High graduation invitations from 1920 and 1924, and various calling cards from people I don’t know.

Much of what I have concerns Grandpa’s involvement with Davey Tree.  I have a set of letters and instructions books from the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, Kent, Ohio.  The books date from the teens and twenties.  As I remember, Grandpa Wolfe’s dream was to be a tree surgeon.  He graduated from Pickaway High in 1924 and was accepted into the Davey program, but was called back to the farm when his father died in March of 1925.  (Davey Tree was about 35 years old then, and is now one of the big players in tree service. According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different names [surnames].

Neil"

Mary Helen Foster Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My mother was an attractive woman with short dark hair.  She was a flapper in the 20's and wore a lace flapper style dress in navy blue for her wedding to my Dad on June 15, 1929.  After attending Normal School for one year she was an elementary teacher and taught school until Lois was born in 1931.  Mama had many talents, skills and patience and taught and helped us her whole life.  She also had a good sense of humor and said things that made us laugh.  She taught Lois and me to embroider, to sew, knit and crochet.  We made candy and popcorn balls together during the holidays, and baked and decorated cookies and colored and decorated Easter eggs.  We females did the weekly wash and hung loads of washing on the clothes line, and we did the weekly house cleaning on Saturdays and tons of dishwashing.  Lois and I often sang while we washed and dried dishes, I think to pass the time more quickly.  Our Mother also helped our brothers make kites or puppets and rubber band guns and other projects.  She seldom sat down.

 

In the summer she canned food from the garden and the kitchen would be hot and steamy with boiling jars that had been stored in the basement, and pots of bubbly tomatoes, beans, fruits or jams that had to be sealed in the jars in boiling water.  And she sewed and knitted many clothes for her girls and grandchildren, as well as sewing pillow cases, tea towels, doll clothes, teddy bears, puppets and more.  She encouraged our arts and crafts and school work.  Our family always went to all the Kingston basketball games especially since all my brothers played basketball, so Friday nights were busy getting everyone fed and off to the games.

 

She was an active member of the PTA, Eastern Star, the garden club and church circle.  She helped with our 4-H clubs, our Brownie and Girl Scout troops, and other groups and projects where she was needed, and was happy, non-complaining and smiling with it all.  Every one loved her as she did them.

Daddy was on the Kingston City Council for years, and he was a Mason in the Kingston lodge, and active in The Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian Church.  He was respected and loved by the towns people and his Masonic brothers as well as the people he worked with, and even more so by his wife Mary and family.

"Dad,

When I was little, I used to look through a botany textbook that Grandma Wolfe kept around.  At some point, I asked her if I could have it, and she said okay.  The book is Gray’s School and Field Book of Botany, published in 1857.  It is signed by Clara’s son, George C. Wolfe.  The fly page reads, “G. C. Wolfe, Kingston, Ohio, March 7 - 1887 -“  If my reading of the family tree is correct, George had five years left to make it to Elreno before he died, and he didn’t take the book.

I also have some school records and memorabilia that belonged to Grandpa Wolfe (Russell Franklin).  Some of the school documents are signed by Josephine Sybil Worthen (as Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe).  One of these is a largish envelope sent from a seed company to Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe for the Camp Lewis Farm.  I also have Pickaway High graduation invitations from 1920 and 1924, and various calling cards from people I don’t know.

Much of what I have concerns Grandpa’s involvement with Davey Tree.  I have a set of letters and instructions books from the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, Kent, Ohio.  The books date from the teens and twenties.  As I remember, Grandpa Wolfe’s dream was to be a tree surgeon.  He graduated from Pickaway High in 1924 and was accepted into the Davey program, but was called back to the farm when his father died in March of 1925.  (Davey Tree was about 35 years old then, and is now one of the big players in tree service. According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different names [surnames].

Mary Helen Foster Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My mother was an attractive woman with short dark hair.  She was a flapper in the 20's and wore a lace flapper style dress in navy blue for her wedding to my Dad on June 15, 1929.  After attending Normal School for one year she was an elementary teacher and taught school until Lois was born in 1931.  Mama had many talents, skills and patience and taught and helped us her whole life.  She also had a good sense of humor and said things that made us laugh.  She taught Lois and me to embroider, to sew, knit and crochet.  We made candy and popcorn balls together during the holidays, and baked and decorated cookies and colored and decorated Easter eggs.  We females did the weekly wash and hung loads of washing on the clothes line, and we did the weekly house cleaning on Saturdays and tons of dishwashing.  Lois and I often sang while we washed and dried dishes, I think to pass the time more quickly.  Our Mother also helped our brothers make kites or puppets and rubber band guns and other projects.  She seldom sat down.

 

In the summer she canned food from the garden and the kitchen would be hot and steamy with boiling jars that had been stored in the basement, and pots of bubbly tomatoes, beans, fruits or jams that had to be sealed in the jars in boiling water.  And she sewed and knitted many clothes for her girls and grandchildren, as well as sewing pillow cases, tea towels, doll clothes, teddy bears, puppets and more.  She encouraged our arts and crafts and school work.  Our family always went to all the Kingston basketball games especially since all my brothers played basketball, so Friday nights were busy getting everyone fed and off to the games.

 

She was an active member of the PTA, Eastern Star, the garden club and church circle.  She helped with our 4-H clubs, our Brownie and Girl Scout troops, and other groups and projects where she was needed, and was happy, non-complaining and smiling with it all.  Every one loved her as she did them.

Russell Franklin Wolfe was the son of Earl Russell and Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe. He married Mary Helen Foster Wolfe.

 

Russell Franklin Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My Dad (we called Daddy) was a tall, thick chested man with lots of dark hair and I always considered him very handsome.  He was kind and quiet and smart.  He really liked keeping up with world news and local events and had lots of information which he often didn't volunteer to share, though he would if asked and give his opinions when engaged in conversation.  He could fix anything - cars, washers, toasters, bicycles, lawn mowers, anything at all I think, and always had a project going in the garage with zillions of tools.  He was always generous and willing to help out.  In the 50's he invited a family of three to live in their house trailer in our back yard in Kingston for several months, as they were having a hard time.

 

When I was three our family moved from the Wolfe farm on Wolfe Road to Kingston, Ohio where my parents had bought an eight room house.  Daddy was still remodeling the kitchen and back porch, mending the roof and digging a well in the back yard when we moved in.  Granddad Hickle, Mary's stepfather, assisted Daddy in the house remodel.  Daddy was a hard working man all his life.

 

He taught my brothers how to fix their bikes and cars and build things, like a cart which my brother Philip used for hauling corn cobs or leaves or whatever needed to be moved.  He teased my sister and me a little and said one of us was smart and the other was pretty.  We never knew which was which.  He paid a nickel to me for every lost button I sewed on his shirts, and I collected the lost change which fell from his pockets when he finally took a rest on the couch in the evenings.  Once I painted his toenails red when he was napping, and he let it wear off rather than use remover.

 

My parents liked traveling occasionally and I think a fun part for Daddy was planning the trips and studying the maps and travel information.  He really enjoyed finding interesting places to visit and some of those stops were on their trips to California when they visited me, or to Florida or Michigan when they visited Philip's and Lois's families.  He liked to go fishing on the weekends occasionally in his small motor boat and when I was a kid he sometimes would bring home catfish he'd caught in the river and our Mother would fry them.  In their retirement they had intended to travel more but that plan was cut short when Daddy was shot by a mentally unstable neighbor in 1979.

"History of Whitingham" by Clark Jillson: A Short Early History of Whitingham, Vermont taken from Vermont Historical Gazeteer, Vol. 5, edited by Maria Hemenway

On the 7th of January 1767, a petition was presented to the lieutenant govenor of New York by Nathan Whiting, Samuel Fitch, Eleazer Fitch, James Smedley, David Baldwin, Andrew Myers, Samuel Whiting, Robert Aiton, Amos Hitchcock and Nathan Haines Whiting, covering a part of the "Cumberland Township". After three years, because the matter was delayed, on January 26, 1770, Col. Nathan Whiting renewed the petition. It was granted on the 12th of March 1770 to seven British soldiers, who were rewarded by their fidelity in the King's service. The town was chartered with the name Whitingham".

The town lies in the southern part of Vermont with it's southern border along the Massachusetts line.

Silas Hamilton was one of the first settlers. He came from Warren, Mass and was engaged in Shay's Rebellion for which he was punished. Vermont became the refuge for many of the insurgents including Shay himself. About the same time, Robert Bratten removed from Colraine, Mass to Whitingham and began farming. Mr. Hamilton became the first representative from Whitingham to the Legistlature of Vermont in 1778.

Life was hard for the early settlers who had to travel through the forest by marked trees and transport their grain all the way down to Greenfield, Massachusetts on foot, to have it ground. The first birth in town was John Nelson, Jr. and the first death was Thomas Riddle. Mr. Riddle was from Connecticut and was in Whitingham to visit and took ill. Because of the burden of transporting back to his home, he was buried in Whitingham.

Witchcraft came to town when an elderly women by the name of Lamphear was said to have cast a spell on her neighbor. Evidently the "Salem" witches were still on the minds of the people.

A meeting house was framed and raised during the summer and autumn of 1799 by Levi Conant of Halifax, and was finished off later by Justus Hall, also of Halifax. The Centre Village, as it was called, filled an important place in the lives of the people for many years. They met for meetings there, worshiped there on the Sabbath, shopped, and gathered together as a town in this place. The first store in this vacinity was built by William and Joseph Goodnow in 1804. The most prosperous days of the "Centre Village" were between 1815 - 1835. Around 1838, trade in this area began to decline as people moved to Jacksonville, which was a small village in the northeastern part of Whitingham. Jacksonville soon became the most important business center of the town and remains to this day, the most prominent village in Whitingham.

The earliest trace of any settlement in this place, called Jacksonville, was about 1808. There were three families living there at that time, the Patrick Peebles family, Obed Foster, and a man by the name of Mr. Brown. People began settling here so rapidly that it was given the name "New Boston". Laban J. Childs from Wilmington, came here about 1838 and with Charles Foster, ran a grocery store. The lumber business was begun by Capt. Elias Stone and Willard Foster. But it is said that Parley Starr and Martin Brown were the two most influential people in town during this period of growth. By 1841, Jacksonville was the center of business in the town of Jacksonville.

Among the names of the early families of the town of Whitingham were Nathan and Amos Green, who came from Hampden, Massachusetts. The Brown family was also well represented as five brothers and one sister, whose husband's name was Brown came to Whitingham from Ipswich, NH. They were all members of the Baptist Church. Other families were the Waste family, with Bezaleel Waste, the paternal ancestor, the Silas Richard Stickney family from Tewksbury, Massachusetts. Other family names were Brigham, Chase, Preston, Tainter, Roberts, Carley and Parker.

Esther Bliss, daughter of Pelatiah Bliss and Hepzibah Goodwin, was born on 28 Dec 1755 in Lebanon, CT. She died on 08 May 1803 in Whitingham, VT.

 

Notes for Jabez Foster:

Jabez Foster, Esq. (The title, Esquire, was then an English term meaning landowner)

Jabez was born in 1754 and was the son of Benjamin Foster and Sarah French II Foster. Benjamin Foster was killed in the French and Indian War in the expedition against Crown Point, a fortification on the north shore of Lake Champlain. Jabez was apparently about four years old when his father died. Jabez's mother remarried on Jan. 14, 1759 to Benjamin Lyman. From his mother's second marriage, Jabez had six half brothers and sisters. They were: Isaac Lyman, Benjamin Lyman, Hannah Lyman, Diodamia Lyman, EleazOr Lyman and Silas Lyman. The Lymans lived for a time in Lebanon, Connecticut, with all the Lyman children being born and baptized there. Eventually, the Lyman family moved to Halifax, Vermont, but Jabez chose to stay behind in Lebanon, Conn.

Jabez next encountered his half-brother, Isaac Lyman, at the Battle of Bunker Hill. One book records that "On the evening of 16 June Isaac went with 1000 men under Colonel william Prescott to Breeds' Hill or Bunker Hill. Capt. James Clark had marched a company of 160 men the 90 miles from Lebanon to Boston in 72 hours. Jabez Foster was among those men. Jabez survived the battle but lost many of his friends."

After the Battle of Bunker Hill, which was in 1775, Jabez returned to Lebanon where he married Esther Bliss on December 25, 1776. Esther Bliss was the daughter of Pelatiah Bliss and Hepzibah (Goodwin) Bliss. Jabez and Esther had two children: Obed Foster was born on August 15, 1785, and Esther Foster was born January 27, 1795, but died the following day.

Jabez joined his half-brother Isaac in Whitingham, Vermont, where they both became leading settlers of the town. Jabez helped to break the soil and organize the town government. Jabez' first piece of property was acquired in 1788. Jabez and his half-brother bought a near 200 acre parcel of land from Amasa Shumway. This transaction is noted in the Whitingham Land Records, Vol. #2, p. 179, as being Lot #10 of Wells' Grant, Whitingham.

Jabez served as town clerk of Whitingham in 1794, and continuously from 1799-1818. Jabez, in addition to being

a jack-of-all-trades in the town of Whitingham, appears to have been a farmer and a justice of the Peace. In addition, Jabez was Town Constable in 1792 and 1781, and Town Treasurer from 1780 to 1800. He was also Selectman of the town for the years 1781, 1795, 1803, 1806, 1808, and 1809. Jabez was also Representative to the General Asembly from w,hit-ingham fro 1791, 1792, 1793, 1795, 1796, 1804, 1805, 1808, and 1809.

When Jabez' wife Esther died on May 8, 1803, Jabez subsequently remarried to Cynthia Arms on April 18, 1805 in Brattleboro, Vermont. Cynthia Arms Foster died on May 5, 1814 in Whitingham.

Esther Bliss, daughter of Pelatiah Bliss and Hepzibah Goodwin, was born on 28 Dec 1755 in Lebanon, CT. She died on 08 May 1803 in Whitingham, VT.

 

Notes for Jabez Foster:

Jabez Foster, Esq. (The title, Esquire, was then an English term meaning landowner)

Jabez was born in 1754 and was the son of Benjamin Foster and Sarah French II Foster. Benjamin Foster was killed in the French and Indian War in the expedition against Crown Point, a fortification on the north shore of Lake Champlain. Jabez was apparently about four years old when his father died. Jabez's mother remarried on Jan. 14, 1759 to Benjamin Lyman. From his mother's second marriage, Jabez had six half brothers and sisters. They were: Isaac Lyman, Benjamin Lyman, Hannah Lyman, Diodamia Lyman, EleazOr Lyman and Silas Lyman. The Lymans lived for a time in Lebanon, Connecticut, with all the Lyman children being born and baptized there. Eventually, the Lyman family moved to Halifax, Vermont, but Jabez chose to stay behind in Lebanon, Conn.

Jabez next encountered his half-brother, Isaac Lyman, at the Battle of Bunker Hill. One book records that "On the evening of 16 June Isaac went with 1000 men under Colonel william Prescott to Breeds' Hill or Bunker Hill. Capt. James Clark had marched a company of 160 men the 90 miles from Lebanon to Boston in 72 hours. Jabez Foster was among those men. Jabez survived the battle but lost many of his friends."

After the Battle of Bunker Hill, which was in 1775, Jabez returned to Lebanon where he married Esther Bliss on December 25, 1776. Esther Bliss was the daughter of Pelatiah Bliss and Hepzibah (Goodwin) Bliss. Jabez and Esther had two children: Obed Foster was born on August 15, 1785, and Esther Foster was born January 27, 1795, but died the following day.

Jabez joined his half-brother Isaac in Whitingham, Vermont, where they both became leading settlers of the town. Jabez helped to break the soil and organize the town government. Jabez' first piece of property was acquired in 1788. Jabez and his half-brother bought a near 200 acre parcel of land from Amasa Shumway. This transaction is noted in the Whitingham Land Records, Vol. #2, p. 179, as being Lot #10 of Wells' Grant, Whitingham.

Jabez served as town clerk of Whitingham in 1794, and continuously from 1799-1818. Jabez, in addition to being

a jack-of-all-trades in the town of Whitingham, appears to have been a farmer and a justice of the Peace. In addition, Jabez was Town Constable in 1792 and 1781, and Town Treasurer from 1780 to 1800. He was also Selectman of the town for the years 1781, 1795, 1803, 1806, 1808, and 1809. Jabez was also Representative to the General Asembly from w,hit-ingham fro 1791, 1792, 1793, 1795, 1796, 1804, 1805, 1808, and 1809.

When Jabez' wife Esther died on May 8, 1803, Jabez subsequently remarried to Cynthia Arms on April 18, 1805 in Brattleboro, Vermont. Cynthia Arms Foster died on May 5, 1814 in Whitingham.

Descendants of Russell F. and Mary H. Foster Wolfe

 

 So far in this book we have concerned ourselves only with the Ancestors of the Wolfe family line. Further, we have viewed the Wolfe Ancestors from a focal-point on the Wolfe family timeline of about the first two decades of the 1900s. All of these ancestors are deceased.

 

 We will now use the same focal point on the Wolfe timeline but turn our attention to the future. That is, we will now begin our exploration from the focal point of the first couple of decades of the 1900s and look into the future toward the present day (December 2014). Most of the family members in time period are still living.

 

 To do this we will use two new tools. The first is the Descendants Chart which is similar to the Pedigree Chart except that it leads from the focal point on the timeline, into the future. Combined, the Pedigree Chart and the Descendants Chart provide a complete picture of the direct line members of the Wolfe family line.

 

 The second new tool is the Descendants Report which is much like the Ahnentafel Report except that it looks from the focal point to the future. Combined, the Ahnentafel Report and the Descendants Report provide a complete picture of the direct line members of the Wolfe family line.

 

 It should be pointed out that this same organizational approach will be used for each of the four family branches that originate with the children of Earl Russell and Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe.

 

 The next section begins with a Descendant Chart of Russell F. and Mary H. Foster Wolfe. This Descendant Chart can be viewed as a graphic ‘index’ for the Descendants Report that follows:

Mary Helen Foster Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My mother was an attractive woman with short dark hair.  She was a flapper in the 20's and wore a lace flapper style dress in navy blue for her wedding to my Dad on June 15, 1929.  After attending Normal School for one year she was an elementary teacher and taught school until Lois was born in 1931.  Mama had many talents, skills and patience and taught and helped us her whole life.  She also had a good sense of humor and said things that made us laugh.  She taught Lois and me to embroider, to sew, knit and crochet.  We made candy and popcorn balls together during the holidays, and baked and decorated cookies and colored and decorated Easter eggs.  We females did the weekly wash and hung loads of washing on the clothes line, and we did the weekly house cleaning on Saturdays and tons of dishwashing.  Lois and I often sang while we washed and dried dishes, I think to pass the time more quickly.  Our Mother also helped our brothers make kites or puppets and rubber band guns and other projects.  She seldom sat down.

 

In the summer she canned food from the garden and the kitchen would be hot and steamy with boiling jars that had been stored in the basement, and pots of bubbly tomatoes, beans, fruits or jams that had to be sealed in the jars in boiling water.  And she sewed and knitted many clothes for her girls and grandchildren, as well as sewing pillow cases, tea towels, doll clothes, teddy bears, puppets and more.  She encouraged our arts and crafts and school work.  Our family always went to all the Kingston basketball games especially since all my brothers played basketball, so Friday nights were busy getting everyone fed and off to the games.

 

She was an active member of the PTA, Eastern Star, the garden club and church circle.  She helped with our 4-H clubs, our Brownie and Girl Scout troops, and other groups and projects where she was needed, and was happy, non-complaining and smiling with it all.  Every one loved her as she did them.

In the summer she canned food from the garden and the kitchen would be hot and steamy with boiling jars that had been stored in the basement, and pots of bubbly tomatoes, beans, fruits or jams that had to be sealed in the jars in boiling water.  And she sewed and knitted many clothes for her girls and grandchildren, as well as sewing pillow cases, tea towels, doll clothes, teddy bears, puppets and more.  She encouraged our arts and crafts and school work.  Our family always went to all the Kingston basketball games especially since all my brothers played basketball, so Friday nights were busy getting everyone fed and off to the games.

 

She was an active member of the PTA, Eastern Star, the garden club and church circle.  She helped with our 4-H clubs, our Brownie and Girl Scout troops, and other groups and projects where she was needed, and was happy, non-complaining and smiling with it all.  Every one loved her as she did them.

Notes for Russell Franklin Wolfe:

Russell Franklin Wolfe was the son of Earl Russell and Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe. He married Mary Helen Foster Wolfe.

 

Russell Franklin Wolfe

(By daughter Mary Jo McCall)

 

My Dad (we called Daddy) was a tall, thick chested man with lots of dark hair and I always considered him very handsome.  He was kind and quiet and smart.  He really liked keeping up with world news and local events and had lots of information which he often didn't volunteer to share, though he would if asked and give his opinions when engaged in conversation.  He could fix anything - cars, washers, toasters, bicycles, lawn mowers, anything at all I think, and always had a project going in the garage with zillions of tools.  He was always generous and willing to help out.  In the 50's he invited a family of three to live in their house trailer in our back yard in Kingston for several months, as they were having a hard time.

 

When I was three our family moved from the Wolfe farm on Wolfe Road to Kingston, Ohio where my parents had bought an eight room house.  Daddy was still remodeling the kitchen and back porch, mending the roof and digging a well in the back yard when we moved in.  Granddad Hickle, Mary's stepfather, assisted Daddy in the house remodel.  Daddy was a hard working man all his life.

 

He taught my brothers how to fix their bikes and cars and build things, like a cart which my brother Philip used for hauling corn cobs or leaves or whatever needed to be moved.  He teased my sister and me a little and said one of us was smart and the other was pretty.  We never knew which was which.  He paid a nickel to me for every lost button I sewed on his shirts, and I collected the lost change which fell from his pockets when he finally took a rest on the couch in the evenings.  Once I painted his toenails red when he was napping, and he let it wear off rather than use remover.

 

My parents liked traveling occasionally and I think a fun part for Daddy was planning the trips and studying the maps and travel information.  He really enjoyed finding interesting places to visit and some of those stops were on their trips to California when they visited me, or to Florida or Michigan when they visited Philip's and Lois's families.  He liked to go fishing on the weekends occasionally in his small motor boat and when I was a kid he sometimes would bring home catfish he'd caught in the river and our Mother would fry them.  In their retirement they had intended to travel more but that plan was cut short when Daddy was shot by a mentally unstable neighbor in 1979.

 

Sometimes Daddy played his old trombone or violin for us.  He also had a drum he had played in the Kingston Community Band which was later donated to the Ross County Museum.  We kids always liked that he played and we found it fun.

 

Daddy was on the Kingston City Council for years, and he was a Mason in the Kingston lodge, and active in The Mt. Pleasant Presbyterian Church.  He was respected and loved by the towns people and his Masonic brothers as well as the people he worked with, and even more so by his wife Mary and family.

"Dad,

When I was little, I used to look through a botany textbook that Grandma Wolfe kept around.  At some point, I asked her if I could have it, and she said okay.  The book is Gray’s School and Field Book of Botany, published in 1857.  It is signed by Clara’s son, George C. Wolfe.  The fly page reads, “G. C. Wolfe, Kingston, Ohio, March 7 - 1887 -“  If my reading of the family tree is correct, George had five years left to make it to Elreno before he died, and he didn’t take the book.

I also have some school records and memorabilia that belonged to Grandpa Wolfe (Russell Franklin).  Some of the school documents are signed by Josephine Sybil Worthen (as Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe).  One of these is a largish envelope sent from a seed company to Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe for the Camp Lewis Farm.  I also have Pickaway High graduation invitations from 1920 and 1924, and various calling cards from people I don’t know.

Much of what I have concerns Grandpa’s involvement with Davey Tree.  I have a set of letters and instructions books from the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, Kent, Ohio.  The books date from the teens and twenties.  As I remember, Grandpa Wolfe’s dream was to be a tree surgeon.  He graduated from Pickaway High in 1924 and was accepted into the Davey program, but was called back to the farm when his father died in March of 1925.  (Davey Tree was about 35 years old then, and is now one of the big players in tree service. According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different names [surnames].

Russell died from being shot in the back by a deranged Vietnam War veteran who lived across the street. Mentally, the neighbor never left the battle field in Vietnam. He had shot at several passing automobiles prior to his attack on Russell. Russell was shoveling snow from the sidewalk between his house and garage when he was shot in the back with a 22 caliber rifle from the neighbor's bedroom window.

I also have some school records and memorabilia that belonged to Grandpa Wolfe (Russell Franklin).  Some of the school documents are signed by Josephine Sybil Worthen (as Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe).  One of these is a largish envelope sent from a seed company to Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe for the Camp Lewis Farm.  I also have Pickaway High graduation invitations from 1920 and 1924, and various calling cards from people I don’t know.

Much of what I have concerns Grandpa’s involvement with Davey Tree.  I have a set of letters and instructions books from the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, Kent, Ohio.  The books date from the teens and twenties.  As I remember, Grandpa Wolfe’s dream was to be a tree surgeon.  He graduated from Pickaway High in 1924 and was accepted into the Davey program, but was called back to the farm when his father died in March of 1925.  (Davey Tree was about 35 years old then, and is now one of the big players in tree service. According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different names [surnames].

Additional Information:  Russell

 

Lois Anne Wolfe was the oldest of five children born to Russell Franklin and Mary Helen Foster Wolfe. She was born 3 October 1931. Her siblings in the order of descending age were Russell Philip Wolfe who went by Philip, Mary Josephine Wolfe who went by Mary Jo, Nelson Foster Wolfe, and John Earl Wolfe. The years of the 1930s were a time that the Great Depression enveloped the western world and times were tough. Lois’s father, Russell Franklin Wolfe, had taken up farming on a farm alongside his father’s, Earl Russell Wolfe, in Pickaway County, Ohio. Lois started her schooling at Pickaway Township School and Dick and Lois were classmates for the first three years of grade school. After three years in Pickaway County, Russell moved his family a few miles away to Kingston, Ohio and Lois continued her education in Ross County, Ohio. She graduated from Kingston High School in 1949 and went to college at Ohio University, Athens, Ohio, studying to become an elementary school teacher. Lois and Dick had no further contact until their third year of college.

Lois's first cousin, Ronald Luther List, and Dick were friends from high school at Pickaway Township School. Their homes were only a couple miles apart and they sometimes shared rides from their respective colleges to their homes over weekends. It was through Ronald List that Dick again became acquainted with Lois. Lois and Dick began long-range dating between Ohio University and The Ohio State University during the school year. They dated more frequently during the summer vacations from school since their homes were only about 13 miles apart.

After dating for over a year, Lois and Dick became engaged. Lois changed colleges from Ohio University, Athens, Ohio to The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio from which she graduated. Lois and Dick married 25 September 1952 and continued to live in Columbus until Dick finished his studies in Chemical Engineering.  Lois taught second grade in a Westerville elementary school. Their first son, Daniel Edward Harrington was born in the Ohio State Medical Hospital on 15 January 1955.

In October 2014, she moved to Gloucester, VA to be closer to her son Daniel and two daughters, Pamela Schwartz and Peggy Poole.

Notes for Richard Edward Harrington:

Richard "Dick" Edward Harrington was the first of three children born to Ira Edward and Audra Lavada Young-Harrington. He was born 23 December 1931 in Grant Hospital, Columbus, Ohio. The Nation was in the grips of the Great Depression and the majority of the world's citizens were impacted in one way or other. For the Ira and Audra Harrington family, it meant a move from Ohio to Miami, Florida where the Ira Harrington family and his sister Ruth Pennell family decided to start their own business catching and selling fish. About two months after Dick was born, the families drove to Florida, built a fishing boat and went into business. Audra found the move not to her liking and spent most of her time caring for Dick in their new environment. While the new business was a success up to the point of catching fish, there was almost no market for the product. By June of 1932 it became obvious that the business was not making enough money to support the two families.

On 26 July 1932 Ira and Ruth received word that their baby sister, Easter Marie Harrington Thompson, had died suddenly and unexpectedly the previous day. Immediately the Ira Harrington family set off in their Model-A Ford on a marathon, non-stop (except to buy fuel) 21-hour drive from Miami, Florida to Circleville, Ohio to attend Easter's funeral. Heartbroken and exhausted, they arrived in time for the funeral. The Ira Harrington family never returned to Miami. And so began the life of their first child, Richard E. Harrington.

Notes for Richard Edward Harrington:

Richard "Dick" Edward Harrington was the first of three children born to Ira Edward and Audra Lavada Young-Harrington. He was born 23 December 1931 in Grant Hospital, Columbus, Ohio. The Nation was in the grips of the Great Depression and the majority of the world's citizens were impacted in one way or other. For the Ira and Audra Harrington family, it meant a move from Ohio to Miami, Florida where the Ira Harrington family and his sister Ruth Pennell family decided to start their own business catching and selling fish. About two months after Dick was born, the families drove to Florida, built a fishing boat and went into business. Audra found the move not to her liking and spent most of her time caring for Dick in their new environment. While the new business was a success up to the point of catching fish, there was almost no market for the product. By June of 1932 it became obvious that the business was not making enough money to support the two families.

On 26 July 1932 Ira and Ruth received word that their baby sister, Easter Marie Harrington Thompson, had died suddenly and unexpectedly the previous day. Immediately the Ira Harrington family set off in their Model-A Ford on a marathon, non-stop (except to buy fuel) 21-hour drive from Miami, Florida to Circleville, Ohio to attend Easter's funeral. Heartbroken and exhausted, they arrived in time for the funeral. The Ira Harrington family never returned to Miami. And so began the life of their first child, Richard E. Harrington.

DANIEL EDWARD3 HARRINGTON was born on 15 Jan 1955 in Ohio State University Hospital, Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio, USA. He married Sharon Louise Desjardins, daughter of John Evariste Laurent Desjardins and Beatrice Evangeline Lizzotte, on 31 Dec 1982 in Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA. She was born on 15 Nov 1953 in Florida, USA.

 

Notes for Daniel Edward Harrington:

Daniel Edward Harrington was born 15 January 1955 in the Ohio State University Hospital in Columbus, OH. It was a relatively easy birth his mother would later say. Dick drove Lois to the hospital just a few blocks from their rented home. The hospital staff, anticipating a long labor, urged Dick to go home. An hour later, Dick received a phone call reporting that he was the father of a healthy baby boy. Such was the beginning of Daniel Edward Harrington son to Lois Ann Wolfe-Harrington, an elementary school teacher, and Richard (Dick) Edward Harrington, a newly graduated student in chemical engineering from The Ohio State University.

Within a few weeks, Daniel and his mother joined Dick in Pensacola, FL where Dick had taken his first job as a newly graduated chemical engineer. It was a short stay in Pensacola since Dick would soon be ordered to report aboard a U.S. Naval ship in June 1955. Dan and Lois lived with his grandparents, Russell and Mary Wolfe, for a few months while Dick's ship was on maneuvers in the Arctic Ocean. Lois and Dan then sailed from a naval base on the west coast of California to Pearl Harbor, Oahu, Hawaii, the home base of Dick's ship. They lived in officers' quarters on base at Pearl Harbor, Oahu, Hawaii. Daniel was 3-years old when he, his mother, and his new baby brother, Gregory Philip Harrington, returned to Pensacola, FL. Dan completed kindergarten and first grade in Pensacola, transferring in mid-year of the second grade to a school in Cincinnati, OH where the family had moved in December of 1963. Dan's schooling was interrupted three more times before he graduated from Fort Hunt High School, Alexandria, VA in 1973. He enjoyed scouting and family camping trips while growing up.

College was never a strong priority in the Harrington household. It was encouraged by both his college-graduate parents but because of the modest income and the relatively large family, college would have to be earned by the student. Dan was motivated to go to college and registered at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. He worked as a house painter over one summer to get enough money for tuition, room, board and buy a car. During one school year he worked as a pizza delivery-man to pay the bills. Once when he was making a delivery to a ship in the Navy shipyard, he left his car at the gangway to the quarter-deck of the ship to deliver the pizza. When he returned, his car was gone. The stolen car was recovered three days later with 100 additional miles on the odometer, money and wallet still in the glove compartment, and pizzas still in the delivery oven. Presumably some sailors had "borrowed" his car for a round trip to Virginia Beach about 50 miles away.

In addition to one year as a pizza delivery-man, he also worked as a wrecker driver, attendant, grease monkey and shift supervisor for a garage near the university.

Dan worked his way through college at Old Dominion University earning a BS in Environmental Health in 1978 and a Masters in Business Administration in 2006 from Averett University. His first job was at the Newport News Shipbuilding in Norfolk, VA where he spent his entire working career of 38 years. Starting as field industrial hygienist, Dan was promoted to health and safety supervisor and health and safety manager.  He attained professional certification from the American Board of Industrial Hygiene as Certified Industrial Hygienist in comprehensive practice. He married Sharon Louise Desjardins on 31 Dec 1982. He and Sharon never had children but they had lots of cats.

Dan's hobbies included music and playing the guitar and recording songs. He loved fishing, traveling and technical stuff. He was a computer expert, strong in the application of most of the operating systems and programs.

Dan and Sharon lived in the Tidewater area of Virginia for all of their adult lives. They both retired from their jobs in early 2017. At the time of this writing, they were in the process of building a new home and retiring on the James River near Smithfield, Virginia.

Dan was motivated to go to college and registered at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. He worked as a house painter over one summer to get enough money for tuition, room, board and buy a car. During one school year he worked as a pizza delivery-man to pay the bills. Once when he was making a delivery to a ship in the Navy shipyard, he left his car at the gangway to the quarter-deck of the ship to deliver the pizza. When he returned, his car was gone. The stolen car was recovered three days later with 100 additional miles on the odometer, money and wallet still in the glove compartment, and pizzas still in the delivery oven. Presumably some sailors had "borrowed" his car for a round trip to Virginia Beach about 50 miles away.

In addition to one year as a pizza delivery-man, he also worked as a wrecker driver, attendant, grease monkey and shift supervisor for a garage near the university.

Dan worked his way through college at Old Dominion University earning a BS in Environmental Health in 1978 and a Masters in Business Administration in 2006 from Averett University. His first job was at the Newport News Shipbuilding in Norfolk, VA where he spent his entire working career of 38 years. Starting as field industrial hygienist, Dan was promoted to health and safety supervisor and health and safety manager.  He attained professional certification from the American Board of Industrial Hygiene as Certified Industrial Hygienist in comprehensive practice. He married Sharon Louise Desjardins on 31 Dec 1982. He and Sharon never had children but they had lots of cats.

Dan's hobbies included music and playing the guitar and recording songs. He loved fishing, traveling and technical stuff. He was a computer expert, strong in the application of most of the operating systems and programs.

Dan and Sharon lived in the Tidewater area of Virginia for all of their adult lives. They both retired from their jobs in early 2017. At the time of this writing, they were in the process of building a new home and retiring on the James River near Smithfield, Virginia.

An e-mail from Neil Harrington to Richard Harrington at 3:06 AM 15 August 2010

Dad,

When I was little, I used to look through a botany textbook that Grandma Wolfe kept around.  At some point, I asked her if I could have it, and she said okay.  The book is Gray’s School and Field Book of Botany, published in 1857.  It is signed by Clara’s son, George C. Wolfe.  The fly page reads, “G. C. Wolfe, Kingston, Ohio, March 7 - 1887 -“  If my reading of the family tree is correct, George had to five years left to make it to Elreno before he died, and he didn’t take the book.

I also have some school records and memorabilia that belonged to Grandpa Wolfe (Russell Franklin).  Some of the school documents are signed by Josephine Sybil Worthen (as Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe).  One of these is a largish envelope sent from a seed company to Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe for the Camp Lewis Farm.  I also have Pickaway High graduation invitations from 1920 and 1924, and various calling cards from people I don’t know.

Much of what I have, concerns Grandpa’s involvement with Davey Tree.  I have a set of letters and instructions books from the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, Kent, Ohio.  The books date from the teens and twenties.  As I remember, Grandpa Wolfe’s dream was to be a tree surgeon.  He graduated from Pickaway High in 1924 and was accepted into the Davey program, but was called back to the farm when his father died in March of 1925.  (Davey Tree was about 35 years old then, and is now one of the big players in tree service. According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different surnames.

Dad,

When I was little, I used to look through a botany textbook that Grandma Wolfe kept around.  At some point, I asked her if I could have it, and she said okay.  The book is Gray’s School and Field Book of Botany, published in 1857.  It is signed by Clara’s son, George C. Wolfe.  The fly page reads, “G. C. Wolfe, Kingston, Ohio, March 7 - 1887 -“  If my reading of the family tree is correct, George had to five years left to make it to Elreno before he died, and he didn’t take the book.

I also have some school records and memorabilia that belonged to Grandpa Wolfe (Russell Franklin).  Some of the school documents are signed by Josephine Sybil Worthen (as Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe).  One of these is a largish envelope sent from a seed company to Mrs. Earl Russell Wolfe for the Camp Lewis Farm.  I also have Pickaway High graduation invitations from 1920 and 1924, and various calling cards from people I don’t know.

Much of what I have, concerns Grandpa’s involvement with Davey Tree.  I have a set of letters and instructions books from the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery, Kent, Ohio.  The books date from the teens and twenties.  As I remember, Grandpa Wolfe’s dream was to be a tree surgeon.  He graduated from Pickaway High in 1924 and was accepted into the Davey program, but was called back to the farm when his father died in March of 1925.  (Davey Tree was about 35 years old then, and is now one of the big players in tree service. According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different surnames.

According to a website, Davey Tree “has annual revenue of $500 million to $1 billion and employs a staff of approximately 5,000 to 9,999.”).  

The family tree shows me marrying Donna Louise Morgan.  As she was Donna Louise Lindner when I met her, her kids are Edward and Sarah Lindner.  Sarah has two kids, Malachi and Ross, who have different surnames.

Notes for Gregory Philip Harrington:

Gregory Phillip Harrington was born on 26 Jun 1957 in Berger Hospital in Circleville, OH. His mother, Lois Ann Wolfe-Harrington, had returned with her older son, Daniel Edward Harrington, from Hawaii a few weeks earlier. Gregory's father, Richard "Dick" Edward Harrington, was somewhere on the Pacific Ocean on active duty with the U.S. Navy and would soon be released from active duty to resume their civilian life in Pensacola, FL. Gregory was baptized on 18 August 1957 at Trinity Lutheran Church in Circleville, Ohio.

Greg started to school in Pensacola but his first year was interrupted when the family moved to Cincinnati, OH in December 1963. Like his siblings, he experienced several additional disruptions to his schooling which included schools near Raleigh, NC and Alexandria, VA. Greg graduated from Fort Hunt School, Alexandria, VA in 1975.

College was encouraged by both his college-graduate parents but because of the modest income and the relatively large family, college would have to be earned by the student. Gregory was a very good high school student and worked his way through college at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA where he graduated in 1979 with a High Honors degree in chemisty. He continued his education at the Medical College of Virginia (MCV) at Richmond, VA. While in medical school at MCV, he met and married Sandra Cornelia Redd who was working as a receptionist at a medical doctor's office. They married on 25 September 1982. On 27 Apr 1983 Sandra and Gregory had their only child, Matthew Sterling Harrington. Gregory focused his graduate work toward Interventional Radiology and upon completion of his schooling and internship, he practiced as a Interventional Radiologist in the Boston, Massachusetts area.

Dr. Gregory and Sandy Redd-Harrington divorced about 2009. Gregory married Leah Mancuso on 3 July 2010.

Man dies in crash despite CPR efforts

Published on: 1/7/2009 in "Regional News Briefs" MILWAUKEE COUNTY

A West Allis man died in a one-car wreck on I-43 Tuesday morning despite efforts by passers-by to revive him.

Milan Radjenovic, 27, was killed in the crash on westbound I-43 at W. Loomis Road at 2 a.m., according to Milwaukee County sheriff's office spokeswoman Kim Brooks.

The driver of another vehicle called in the accident and started performing CPR on Radjenovic. A sheriff's deputy soon joined the resuscitation efforts, then paramedics from Greenfield took over, Brooks said.

The wreck closed the freeway for about four hours, Brooks said.

He was born on 23 Jan 1956.

 

Notes for Pamela Anne Harrington:

Pamela Anne Harrington was born in Baptist Hospital in Pensacola, Florida on 20 Jun 1958 to Richard Edward and Lois Anne Wolfe- Harrington. She lived in Pensacola until shortly after her 5th birthday when she moved with her parents to Cincinnati, Ohio where she began her schooling. Like her siblings, her schooling was interrupted as the family moved from Cincinnati, OH; to Raleigh, NC; to Washington, DC; back to Cincinnati, OH and finally to Ann Arbor, MI as her father's job with the U.S. Government changed locations.

Pam graduated from Mount Vernon High School in Alexandria, VA in 1976 after attending school at Fort Hunt from 1972-1974 in the same city. Upon graduation from high school, she went to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio near Dayton, OH from 1976-78. Pamela interrupted her college career in 1978 to spend 10-months in Scotland with a group called Youth With a Mission (YWAM). Upon returning from Scotland she transferred to Concordia University in Michigan because her family had moved to Ann Arbor, MI during her absence. Pamela received an Associate degree from Concordia in 1980 and dropped out of college when she married John "Jack" Edward Schwartz on 08 Aug 1981 whom she had met at Concordia University.

Pamela worked for nearly 6-years following her marriage before she and Jack began their family. On 14 Jun 1987 their first child, Richard James Schwartz was born. Their second child, Robert John Schwartz, was born on 14 Mar 1991 and their third child, Jacquelyn Michelle Schwartz, was born on 19 August 1993 completing the John and Pamela Harrington-Schwartz family.

As her children grew and left the family, Pamela resumed her college career earning an undergraduate degree in Business Administration and Leadership in August 2009 from Concordia University in Michigan. She went on to earn a Master's degree in Organizational Leadership and Administration in May 2011. Pamela had been employed by Concordia University as she earned her undergraduate and Master's degrees. After earning her degrees, she was retained by Concordia University and became Director of Student Success and Retention. In 2014 she relocated to Gloucester, VA and became Administrative Assistant at Virginia Commonwealth University in the department of Family Medicine and Population Health located in Richmond, VA.

 

Pamela and Jack divorced in 2015.

On 17 March 2018, Pamela described her new job as follows:

I work at Rappahannock Community College now.  It's in Glenns, VA - just off US 17 and only 25 miles north of home. The commute is just over 30 minutes, which is heaven.  I even cook dinner now!  I'm a Student Success Coach and a Great Expectations Coach.  As a student success coach I work with 1st semester students who are also first generation or low income students.  As a Great Expectations coach I work with students who have aged out of the foster-care system.  I love, LOVE working with students again. I already have a few that come in, plop down, and just visit for a while.  Now that everyone is registered for classes and the semester is well under way, I'm reaching out to instructors to find out whether students have been attending class and completing assignments. Then, I'll contact the students as needed.  So it's that sort of thing.

Back on track: Warrior Runner Breathing Life  by George Stephens, Staff Writer

When people are faced with adversity, they do one of two things: feel sorry for themselves, or don't. In most cases, people choose the former because it is the easy way to deal with the situation.

It's easy to complain and ask why me? It's easy to take it out on the people around you because hey, you think you have the right to do so.

But every once in awhile we see someone who takes the opposite approach, and it's even more remarkable when that someone is barely old enough to drive.

Enter Rick Schwartz, a sophomore at Lutheran Westland High School. Up until a few months ago, Rick was your typical student. He played basketball and ran track for Lutheran Westland. He also dabbles on the electric guitar.

In mid-November Rick was supposed to go on a hunting trip with his dad, Jack. Rick ended up not going on the trip because he was not feeling well. He began complaining about pains in his shoulder that Saturday, thinking he may of pulled a muscle.

"I went to school on Monday and went to basketball tryouts,'' Rick said. " I did some of the drills but wasn't able to complete all of them.''

Rick and his mother, Pam went to doctor the following day to find out what the problem was.

"We went to the doctor thinking that it was just a pulled muscle, but we ended up in emergency,'' Pam said. "It turned out that Rick didn't have a pulled muscle, but his left lung had collapsed.''

After a closer examination, doctors realized that both lungs were collapsing. It was fortunate that Rick did not go on the hunting trip up in Porcupine Mountains with his dad because doctors said he would not have survived.

"I kept thinking about what would have happened if he went up there,'' Jack said. "I might have come back from hunting and found him there gasping for breath. There is no doubt in my mind that he would have died."

Rick was hospitalized 10 days where he underwent a procedure which placed a tube in both of his lungs. The tube sucked out the escaped air in the chest cavity to allow the lung to expand normally.

The tubes were removed and Rick was sent on his way with seemingly everything under control. Unfortunately, he had to go back into the hospital a few days later because his left lung collapsed again.

His second visit lasted another week to repair his left lung. Rick was only out of the hospital a few days before he had to go back a third time because his right lung collapsed.

During his last two visits, not only did he have to get the tubes reinserted, but he was also given tetracycline, a drug used to aggravate the lungs.

"The bad part about the tetracycline was that it burned pretty bad, so I was constantly taking morphine to ease the pain,'' Rick said. "I was allowed to give it to myself manually, but every morning around 4, I had to have a nurse come in and give it to me because it burned so bad.''

Despite everything that Rick was going through, he never let down.

"For as horrible as this experience was, I have some fond memories,'' Pam Schwartz said. "We got to see the kind of person that our son was. He was always polite and joking around. He remained positive throughout the whole ordeal.''

On Christmas Eve of last year, Rick was finally going home for good. When he got home there was plenty of homework awaiting him from the time he missed, but that didn't faze him.

"The teachers kept telling him to slow down, but Rick kept pushing forward to get his work done," Pam said.

Rick returned to school a week before his finals and was able to pull all A's and one B for the quarter. At the same time he began to resume his workouts with the basketball team.

Right now, Rick is still maintaining his outstanding work in classroom, while playing an integral part of Lutheran Westland's Metro Conference championship track team. He runs the 300-meter hurdles, 800 and 1,600 relays, along with 200 dash.

So while life has returned back to normal in the Schwartz household, it makes them realize how lucky they really are.

"You really pick up an appreciation for parents who have to go through this all of the time, having to take kids in and out of the hospital on a consistent basis," said Jack.

So instead of whining and complaining about the whole world being against you and lamenting why me, remember Rick's story.

Teenagers, every once in awhile, can teach all of us adults a thing or two.

Back on track: Warrior Runner Breathing Life  by George Stephens, Staff Writer

When people are faced with adversity, they do one of two things: feel sorry for themselves, or don't. In most cases, people choose the former because it is the easy way to deal with the situation.

It's easy to complain and ask why me? It's easy to take it out on the people around you because hey, you think you have the right to do so.

But every once in awhile we see someone who takes the opposite approach, and it's even more remarkable when that someone is barely old enough to drive.

Enter Rick Schwartz, a sophomore at Lutheran Westland High School. Up until a few months ago, Rick was your typical student. He played basketball and ran track for Lutheran Westland. He also dabbles on the electric guitar.

In mid-November Rick was supposed to go on a hunting trip with his dad, Jack. Rick ended up not going on the trip because he was not feeling well. He began complaining about pains in his shoulder that Saturday, thinking he may of pulled a muscle.

"I went to school on Monday and went to basketball tryouts,'' Rick said. " I did some of the drills but wasn't able to complete all of them.''

MARGARET ELAINE3 HARRINGTON (Lois Anne2 Wolfe, Mary Helen1 Foster) was born on 09 May 1960 in Pensacola, FL. She married Michael Clark Poole, son of Thomas Clark Poole and Janet Martha Irish, on 24 May 1980. He was born on 06 Jun 1958 in St. Lukes Hospital, Denver, Colorado.

 

Notes for Margaret Elaine Harrington:

Margaret (Peggy) Elaine Harrington was born 09 May 1960 in Pensacola, FL to Richard Edward and Lois Ann Wolfe-Harrington. She lived in Pensacola 3-1/2 years, then moved with her parents to Cincinnati, Ohio where she began her schooling. Like her siblings, her schooling was interrupted as the family moved from Cincinnati, OH; to Raleigh, NC; to Washington, DC; back to Cincinnati, OH and finally to Ann Arbor, MI as her father's job with the U.S. Government changed locations. Peggy graduated from Dexter High School in Dexter, Michigan in 1978. She went to Sienna Heights College for about one semester, then moved to Ann Arbor where she worked for J.C. Penney for a while, then moved on to a job at a Total Gas station. Her first car was a VW Karmann Ghia. At the age of 20-years she met and married Michael Clark Poole on 24 May 1980.

Peg and Mike moved to Newport News, VA in March of 1981, then to Gloucester in 1983 where they bought their first house and started their family. Their first daughter, Eryn Leigh Poole, was born 25 May 1982. On 20 May 1984 their second daughter, Morgan Kendall Poole, was born. While Morgan was the last biological family member, she was not the last family member. On 29 July 1999 Mike and Peggy traveled to China and adopted a beautiful little girl, Emily Yan Li Poole, from a State orphanage. At that time, China was enforcing a one-child rule for its citizens and combined with the cultural preference for sons, Emily had been abandoned on the steps of a government building. She was in good health and less than a year old. No records exist regarding her parents or her age other than her given name, Yan Li. Emily was quickly integrated into the Mike Poole family and soon earned a favorite position among her adopted parents and two older sisters, Eryn and Morgan. The family soon gave her their best-estimate birthday of 20 September 1998. They now celebrate both the "birthday" of 20 September and a "Gotcha" day of 29 July.

As the family grew older and left the family nest, Peggy resumed her education by attending Thomas Nelson Community College where she earned an Associate degree in nursing in May 1990. She sat for her board-exams and became a Registered Nurse the same year. Armed with her RN, Peggy worked in Med-surgery, Telemetry, and Critical Care at Riverside Walter Reed Hospital in Gloucester, VA for several years. In 1995 she worked in Riverside Walter Reed Home Health where she became supervisor for about 7-years of a staff of over 20 home-health care nurses. She continued her advanced studies at the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and earned her Bachelors of Science in Nursing in December 2012. In 2014 she returned to college full-time at Virginia Commonwealth University, while retaining her job at Riverside Walter Reed as a part-time home-health nurse, to get her masters degree in the area of Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (ACNP). She graduated in May 2015, took her ACNP boards which she passed with flying-colors. Shortly thereafter. she was offered a position of hospitalist at the Riverside Hospital near her home which she accepted. She loves her new job, she says.

Notes for Tyler Styron Pluim:

Tyler was adopted by David and Eryn Leigh Poole Tyler as their first son in the family.

 

Eryn Poole Pluim stated, "Ty's birth name was Tyler Styron LaGasse. His birth mother passed away when he was 2. His birth father may still be alive. Ty has a half-brother and Grandmother on his mother's side that we do keep in touch with. His brother is Matthew Styron. His grandmother is Vivian Styron although I think her legal name may be Vincenza."

TOBIN KENDALL PLUIM was born on 11 Dec 2012 in St Mary's Hosp in Richmond, VA.

 

Notes for Tobin Kendall Pluim:

Tobin Kendall Pluim is the biological son of Morgan Kendall Poole and an anonymous sperm doner. Eryn Leigh Poole Pluim is Tobin's adopted mother and sister of his biological mother, Morgan Poole. This arrangement was worked out by Eryn and Morgan before Tobin's conception. Eryn Leigh Poole-Pluim wrote to me the following: "About Tobin's bio-dad, we know a donor number and description, but no name. We really aren't interested in any more than that. He's our son, even if he came about a little differently."

Morgan Kendall Poole was not married at the time that she agreed to become the surrogate mother of Tobin Kendall Pluim for her sister, Eryn Leigh Poole Pluim. This was a kind and generous act based solely in love. Morgan deserves great credit for her unselfish action.

SOPHIA MARIE JOY PLUIM was born on 26 Aug 2015.

 

Notes for Sophia Marie Joy Pluim:

Sophia Maria Joy Pluim (Maria was added by Eryn & David Pluim) was adopted as the daughter of Eryn and David Pluim. However, she has no DNA connection to the David Pluim or Eryn Poole-Pluim family. Sophia was the daughter of Tim Pluim who had been adopted by David's parents, Thomas Arthur Pluim (1957-living) and Roselea Myrna Adams Pluim (1958-living). Tim's birth surname is not known to me. Pluim is the adopted surname of Tim Pluim, father of Sophia. As a result, Sophia's surname, Pluim, did not change as a result of her adoption by David and Eryn Poole-Pluim.

Eryn Pluim emailed me the following: Sophia's bilogical parents are Tonya O'Leary and Timothy Pluim. Tonya was born on December 10, 1985. She was adopted by her parents as an infant in an open adoption after her biological mother neglected her. I believe both of her biological parents are deceased.

I'm waiting on Tim's birthday, but he's about Tonya's age.  He was adopted along with his 2 brothers and his sister by Tom and Rosy [Pluim, parents of David Pluim] when he was in elementary school (around 7) . I don't have any information about his birth parents, but know he and his siblings were in several foster homes before they were adopted.

List Family Line

 

Luther J. List and Dorothy E. Wolfe

 

 

 While the primary purpose of this book is to explore the Wolfe family of Pickaway and Ross Counties, Ohio as defined by Earl Russell and Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe, this line divides into four branches with their children. The descendants of these four branches now constitute the living population of the Wolfe family of Pickaway and Ross Counties, Ohio. Without all of these four branches being represented, the book would not be complete.

 

 In the next section we will address the List branch. As with the earlier Wolfe exploration we will first explore the List ancestors. We will then explore the descendants. The ancestral Wolfe component of each of the four branches (Russell, Dorothy, Josephine and Roger) is identical, since they are siblings, and since this ancestral component has been explored as part of the Russell F. Wolfe branch, it will not be repeated below.

 

 The following List branch will begin with the exploration of the List family ancestors. This will be followed by exploring the descendants of the combined Luther L. and Dorothy E. Wolfe List branch.

Descendants of Luther J. and Dorothy E. Wolfe List

 

 Using the same focal point on the timeline we now turn our attention to the future of the List-Wolfe branch. That is, we will now begin our exploration from the focal point of the first couple of decades of the 1900s and look into the future toward the present day (March 2014). Most of the family members in time period are still living.

 

 First, we will use the Descendants Chart which is similar to the Pedigree Chart except that it leads from the focal point on the timeline, into the future. Second, we will use the Descendants Report which is much like the Ahnentafel Report except that it looks from the focal point to the future or present.

 

 The next section begins with a Descendant Chart of Luther J. and Dorothy E. Wolfe List. This Descendant Chart can be viewed as a graphic ‘index’ for the Descendants Report that follows.

DAVID WOLFE2 LIST (Luther John1) was born on 17 Dec 1935. He married Carolyn Wilhemina Huffer on 15 Jul 1956. She was born on 12 Nov 1937.

 

Notes for David Wolfe List:

Photos in Album, Pages: 10,62,70,85-87,91,97,99,101,104,107,109,111,115,117,120,121

 

David Wolfe List and Carolyn Wilhemina Huffer List were born in Circleville, Ohio. David's parents were Luther and Dorothy E. Wolfe List, farmers in Pickaway County. Carolyn's parents were Roy and Margaret Huffer, plumbing and heating contractors in Circleville. David and Carolyn met at the skating rink just south of Circleville. Carolyn was skating with a friend when she caught David’s eye. He approached her and asked her out on a date. When she rejected him the first time, David was persistent and asked again a week later, and Carolyn finally agreed. David’s persistence paid off, and Carolyn and David married on 15 Jul 1956 at Trinity Lutheran Church in Circleville.

David at 5’-10” with a medium build and Carolyn at 5’-2” with a petite build have been blessed with good health, being able to attend and participate in their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren’s events which have been the main focus of their lives.

Carolyn attended Circleville High School while David attended Pickaway Township High School. Following David's graduation from The Ohio State University, college of engineering, they moved to Celina, Ohio in 1961 with two small children, David John and Ann Elizabeth List, where they continued to live for 53 years as of 2014.

The family soon grew to three children by the birth of Brent Allen List. David John, Ann Elizabeth, and Brent Allen have collectively added ten grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren to the family. David and Carolyn and family are very blessed and thankful for their membership and involvement in the St. John Lutheran Church in Celina. Although two of their children converted to Catholicism because of their spouses, and seven out of ten grandchildren are now Catholic, the family remains closely bonded in both love and faith. Carolyn reared, nurtured and dearly loved the children, grand and great-grandchildren. Grandmother Carolyn’s special love, Christmas and birthday gifts, as well as delicious home-cooked meals will always be remembered, being enjoyed by more than thirty people during the holiday season, although she insisted on making enough food to feed an entire Army.

Carolyn worked at a local apparel shop when the children were small. Later she purchased the store where her daughter and daughters-in-law worked. An electrical fire in 1989 unfortunately ended the business. David started his career at New Idea Farm Equipment in Coldwater, Ohio as a design and development engineer. He was Product Planning Director for 25 years until the company was sold. He then worked for Pax Steel Products in Coldwater, Ohio, another farm equipment company, where he was Plant Manager for 20 years.

David's favorite hobby was attending antique tractor shows and farm equipment shows with family members, especially grandchildren. A highlight event occurred when David and his brother Mark accompanied their Uncle Roger Wolfe to the OSU Farm Science Review near Columbus, Ohio when Roger was in his eighties. David's hobby of collecting and restoring antique farm tractors manufactured in the late 1940s and early 1950s has spanned over 40 years. The collection includes six Ford's (2N's, 8N's and Jubilee) and two John Deeres (#40 and #50).

Grandfather David shared his love for antique tractors with his grandsons and granddaughters, taking them to farm equipment displays and shows. Grandmother Carolyn held numerous sleepovers in order for all of the grandchildren to spend time together. David and Carolyn ensured quality time with their grandchildren by having camp outs at Grand Lake Trailer Park, attending all of their sporting events, taking them to enjoy different animals on the farm, exploring the Indian Mound, making special trips to Circleville to see two sets of grandparents, going hiking at Old Man’s Cave in Hocking County Hills, attending pumpkin shows, taking the majority of the grandkids to OSU football games, and accompanying all of the grandkids to Disney World. David showed his grandsons the beauty of volunteer work through St. Johns Builders doing habitat work such as building homes and ramps. David also assisted the grandchildren with school projects such as rockets and bottle launchers and showed off his green thumb by teaching them about flowers and gardening.

Every grandchild knows that as long as they live, they will always be “Grandpa/Grandma’s boy” or “Grandpa/Grandma’s girl”, David and Carolyn’s password not only to get each grandchild exactly what they wanted, but most importantly, the password to their heart.

Fischer Family Line

 

George A. Fischer and Josephine Ann Wolfe

 

 

 The saga of the George A. and Josephine A. Wolfe Fischer family is tragic to tell. It was one of the many casualties of World War II. The lovely farming couple just a few years out of school were rushed to start their family by the time-pressure of war. Even their place of marriage was dictated by the schedule of the war.

 

 They managed a couple of happy years of married life before they were separated by George’s deployment to Europe. They never saw each other again. George died of wounds suffered on the battle field; Josephine died shortly after child birth. Even the baby who was to be their first born was still-born.

 

 As a result of the short-lived nature of this branch of the Earl and Josephine S. Wolfe line, there is little that can be written of their ancestors and progeny. Only a short Pedigree chart and Ahnentafel Report appear on the next couple of pages.

State File Number: 1917081565

Additional Information: George

 

Below is a well written article about a soldier returning from World War II. It appeared in the Columbus Dispatch newspaper.

 

By DOROTHY TODD FOSTER

 

Now that surnmer has come, George Fischer wants to go back to the farm near Circleville from which he was up-rooted by his country's call to arms. He wants to watch the corn and wheat growing in Pickaway County's fertile soil and to sniff the fresh country air he hasn't smelled since he went away to war four years ago.

"Bud", only son among Mr. and Mrs. George Fischer's six children will get his wish soon, but the homecoming won't be the one he dreamed of all those long months he wore Uncle Sam’s Khaki.

He'll be going home flat on his back paralyzed from the neck down by a German sniper's bullet at St. Lo. The childhood sweetheart who went to California to marry him won’t be there; neither will the baby whose coming meant so much.  Both of  them died three weeks before he came back from Scotland aboard a hospital plane.

His homecoming is being delayed because his family is unable to find an electric refrigerator large enough to hold the countless medicines he needs and to keep extremely cold the liquids which are his chief sustenance. It isn't a question of priority or money; the problem resolves itself into one of locating a new or used refrigerator containing seven or eight cubic feet of space. So far their search in central Ohio has been fruitless.

Since Jan. 3, the wounded veteran has been at the Circleville home of his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Fischer. Intimating that his confinement would be prolonged, the Army granted him a double disability discharge from the U.S. Veterans’ Hospital at Dayton. With proper care assured, he was permitted to come home, two days before Christmas.

Better facilities for his care were offered in town, so he was taken to his uncle's home. Another aunt, Miss Eva Fischer, is assistant to a Circleville doctor and has taught other members of the family how to make “Bud” comfortable.

This past winter Miss Mary Fischer skipped the semester at Capital University where she is a senior, to be "Bud's" chief nurse. Now that the Columbus schools are out Miss Betty Fischer, his oldest sister, who teaches at the Linden-McKinley School has replaced Mary in this role. Mary returned to Capital this week and will be graduated in August.

Young George Fischer was born on the 264-acre farm his father now operates and farming was his life until he was inducted June 17, 1941. Together he and his father plowed the fields and tilled the soil and reaped the harvest.

Pretty Josephine Wolfe lived on a farm not far away and they went to Jackson Township High School together. When "Bud" went to war, they were engaged and nine months later she crossed the country so they could be married.

When he went overseas in May, 1944, he dreamed of the child to be born soon and the farm home they hoped to establish when peace finally came.

S/Sgt. Fischer’s infantry unit had been on the defensive at St. Lo two days and after things quieted down, they took the offensive last July 15. They were walking down a country road that afternoon when a sniper's bullet zoomed out of the hedgerow and struck him squarely in the neck.

They took him to England and after an operation failed to relieve his condition he was sent to Scotland. On Sept. 21, they carried him off a hospital plane at Mitchell Field  N.Y.  and from  a chaplain he learned that for him there would be no happy home-coming. The daughter born to his young wife on Aug. 31, his own 27th birthday did not live; Josephine Wolfe Fischer died the following day. After her death, Josephine lay in state in her father's living room on the farm. She held her dead baby girl in her arms. They were buried together.

At home, "Bud" is receiving the same care he received at Percy Jones Hospital, Battle Creek, Mich, and at the Dayton Hospital --- penicillin, sulfa drugs and sedatives when the pain becomes too severe.

His hospital-type bed, in the living room of his uncle's home is moved frequently to change his view from the window. There's a radio in the room for moments when he feels like listening.

A reading stand fits over his chest and while he cannot turn the pages of magazines or books, there are always willing hands to do it for him.

When he gets back to the farm - provided an adequate refrigerator can be found, he'll be able to watch the golden wheat swaying in the hot summer breeze and hear the sounds of life all around him. Then perhaps the days won't seem so long.

Josephine Ann Wolfe Fischer

(by niece Mary Jo McCall)

 

Josephine (Aunt Jo) was the youngest daughter of the two girls in the Josephine and Earl Wolfe family.  As a child I remember her  being so very sweet and pretty and enjoying our family visits to the farm.  I was four or five years old and I remember her playing with my pigtails as I sat next to her on the sofa.  She had twin dolls which she had outgrown, and my cousin Dotty Jo and I played with the dolls when we stayed a few days with Grandma Wolfe on the farm in the summer.  My sister Lois, six years older than I, also stayed on the farm sometimes in the summer.  She remembers waiting for Aunt Jo to come home from her job at J C Penney's in Circleville each day.  Lois and I each still have doll quilts that Aunt Jo sewed from samples of Penney's sample books.  Aunt Jo and Lois liked being together, painting their fingernails and other "girly" things.  They wrote letters to one another when Aunt Jo went to California.

 

In 1942 Aunt Jo was engaged to marry Sgt. George Fischer. His army unit was sent to a base in California where Aunt Jo went by train for their wedding. They married 29 Mar 1942 and when George was sent overseas in May 1944 to St. Lo, France she returned to her parents' home on the Wolfe Road farm. She was pregnant and planned for her baby's birth and her husband's return. Her doctor was Dr. Lightner in Kingston. Uncle George was shot right after the invasion of Normandy, France and paralyzed from the neck down. Aunt Jo’s baby died in childbirth at the end of August and Aunt Jo died a couple of days later on 1 September 1944. George died 11-months later in his home in Ohio on 25 July 1945.

Now that surnmer has come, George Fischer wants to go back to the farm near Circleville from which he was up-rooted by his country's call to arms. He wants to watch the corn and wheat growing in Pickaway County's fertile soil and to sniff the fresh country air he hasn't smelled since he went away to war four years ago.

"Bud", only son among Mr. and Mrs. George Fischer's six children will get his wish soon, but the homecoming won't be the one he dreamed of all those long months he wore Uncle Sam’s Khaki.

He'll be going home flat on his back paralyzed from the neck down by a German sniper's bullet at St. Lo. The childhood sweetheart who went to California to marry him won’t be there; neither will the baby whose coming meant so much.  Both of  them died three weeks before he came back from Scotland aboard a hospital plane.

His homecoming is being delayed because his family is unable to find an electric refrigerator large enough to hold the countless medicines he needs and to keep extremely cold the liquids which are his chief sustenance. It isn't a question of priority or money; the problem resolves itself into one of locating a new or used refrigerator containing seven or eight cubic feet of space. So far their search in central Ohio has been fruitless.

Since Jan. 3, the wounded veteran has been at the Circleville home of his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Fischer. Intimating that his confinement would be prolonged, the Army granted him a double disability discharge from the U.S. Veterans’ Hospital at Dayton. With proper care assured, he was permitted to come home, two days before Christmas.

Better facilities for his care were offered in town, so he was taken to his uncle's home. Another aunt, Miss Eva Fischer, is assistant to a Circleville doctor and has taught other members of the family how to make “Bud” comfortable.

This past winter Miss Mary Fischer skipped the semester at Capital University where she is a senior, to be "Bud's" chief nurse. Now that the Columbus schools are out Miss Betty Fischer, his oldest sister, who teaches at the Linden-McKinley School has replaced Mary in this role. Mary returned to Capital this week and will be graduated in August.

Young George Fischer was born on the 264-acre farm his father now operates and farming was his life until he was inducted June 17, 1941. Together he and his father plowed the fields and tilled the soil and reaped the harvest.

Pretty Josephine Wolfe lived on a farm not far away and they went to Jackson Township High School together. When "Bud" went to war, they were engaged and nine months later she crossed the country so they could be married.

When he went overseas in May, 1944, he dreamed of the child to be born soon and the farm home they hoped to establish when peace finally came.

S/Sgt. Fischer’s infantry unit had been on the defensive at St. Lo two days and after things quieted down, they took the offensive last July 15. They were walking down a country road that afternoon when a sniper's bullet zoomed out of the hedgerow and struck him squarely in the neck.

They took him to England and after an operation failed to relieve his condition he was sent to Scotland. On Sept. 21, they carried him off a hospital plane at Mitchell Field  N.Y.  and from  a chaplain he learned that for him there would be no happy home-coming. The daughter born to his young wife on Aug. 31, his own 27th birthday did not live; Josephine Wolfe Fischer died the following day. After her death, Josephine lay in state in her father's living room on the farm. She held her dead baby girl in her arms. They were buried together.

At home, "Bud" is receiving the same care he received at Percy Jones Hospital, Battle Creek, Mich, and at the Dayton Hospital --- penicillin, sulfa drugs and sedatives when the pain becomes too severe.

His hospital-type bed, in the living room of his uncle's home is moved frequently to change his view from the window. There's a radio in the room for moments when he feels like listening.

A reading stand fits over his chest and while he cannot turn the pages of magazines or books, there are always willing hands to do it for him.

When he gets back to the farm - provided an adequate refrigerator can be found, he'll be able to watch the golden wheat swaying in the hot summer breeze and hear the sounds of life all around him. Then perhaps the days won't seem so long.

Wolfe-Dresbach Family Line

 

Roger Earl Wolfe and Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach

 

 

 Roger Earl Wolfe was the second and only other male Wolfe of the Earl Russell and Josephine Sybil Worthen Wolfe children. His Wolfe lineage story has already been told so the focus of this exploration will be on the Dresbach family line.

 

 The Dresbach family originated from Germany. The immigrant ancestors, Martin Dreisbach (1717-1799) and his son, Jacob Dresbach (1748-1804) were both born in Germany and settled in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania. Notice the change in the spelling of Martin’s surname compared with that of his son and today’s spelling in the title above.

 

 Perhaps about 1800 the son of Jacob Dresbach (1748-1804), who was also named Martin Dresbach (1776-1850) moved to Hallsville in Ross County, Ohio. The year of 1800 is only a guess by the author based on the observation that in this period major relocations of progeny from developed farming areas was frequently due to only one heir inheriting a parent’s farm and other siblings needing to move on to newly opened areas to establish their own farms.  Descendants of this Dresbach family line can still be found in the Pickaway and Ross County areas today (December 2014).

 

 The organization of the sections in this exploration is the same as for Roger’s previous three siblings.

Ancestors of Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach

Generation 1

1.

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach, daughter of Warner Lodge Dresbach and Myrtle May Rudisill, was born on 13 Jul 1920. She died on 14 Sep 1993. She married Roger Earl Wolfe on 21 Jun 1941 in Circleville, Ohio, Pickaway County, Ohio. He was born on 01 May 1920 in Pickaway County, Ohio. He died on 06 Jul 2010.

 

Notes for Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach:

Photos in Album, Pages: 14,68,69

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was the spouse of Roger Earl Wolfe. She is also the 1st cousin, once removed of Gediliah Alexander Dresbach. Gediliah A. Dresbach was the husband of Candice Kay Harrington and father of their children.

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was born on July 13, 1920 in Circleville, Ohio. As a high school student she enjoyed singing in school plays and choir. She met Roger Wolfe at her piano teacher’s house after being introduced by another student, Roger’s sister Josephine. She graduated class valedictorian and earned a partial scholarship to Capital University in Bexley, OH. She earned room and board by working as a housekeeper at a private residence. She graduated magna cum laude and earned a teaching certificate in elementary education. Jessie taught 5th grade at High Street School in Circleille, OH (1939-1941). She used her first year’s earnings to repay a loan for her college tuition. Jessie became engaged to Roger in 1940. They married on June 21, 1941, and moved to a house in Columbus, OH on Elizabeth Ave. Jessie became a full-time homemaker with the birth of their first child, Suzanne Kay Wolfe, on June 2, 1942. When Roger moved to Denver with the Air Force, Jessie left Suzanne in the care of Warner and Myrtle Dresbach and followed him. The family home was rented out from 1943 to 1946. She worked as a salesperson at J.C. Penney in Denver, CO (1944). Jessie and Suzanne moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico for seven months in 1945 to be with Roger. Living in the apartment with the plumbing installed by her husband, Jessie had to haul 50 lb blocks of ice in a little cart since they didn’t have a refrigerator. Jessie taught 3rd grade in Circleville, OH (1945-46). After Roger returned from Germany in June 1946, they were finally able to return to their home in Columbus. Their second child, Joyce Elaine Wolfe, was born on March 25, 1948. Suzanne recalled that her mother worked very hard to save money by sewing clothes for the family and preparing budget meals while her father was starting his first business. Vacations often included camping as a way to save money, too. Roger bought an old school bus and converted it into a camper. Roger and Jessie joined First English Lutheran Church about 1949. Jessie taught in the church nursery for 11 years. Jessie’s life focused on raising her family until both daughters attended college. Her later years allowed her to pursue her passion for travel, a passion she shared with Roger. Jessie visited all 50 states in the U.S., 10 provinces in Canada, and 33 states in Mexico. Jessie and Roger were “world travelers” having visited 7 countries in South America; Egypt, 17 countries in Europe including Russia; Japan, China, Australia and New Zealand. Mostly Roger and Jessie traveled together, but Jessie went to Spain and Morocco with her sister Mabel and to England with her friend Shirley. Suzanne recalled that “Jessie loved to plan trips. She enjoyed studying maps.” Besides travel, her favorite activities were reading historical novels, dancing, singing, and dining out. Jessie died on September 14, 1993.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My grandmother Jessie had a wonderful, beautiful, big smile. When she sang lullabies to me as a young child, her voice was soft and low. She always put the pickle dish next to my place at her dinner table, because she knew how much I liked them. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same city where she lived, so I spent many family occasions with her and grandfather. As a child, I often got to stay with them on weekends. She taught me how to play “Crazy Eights” (card game) and “Scribbles” (make pictures out of random scribbles). I remember she liked to read and solve crossword puzzles. One of my favorite things to do at my grandparent’s house was to go down into the basement and see a slide show of their travels and listen to their stories. Grandmother liked to write letters and I enjoyed reading her messages from around the world.

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

I remember Grandmother Wolfe playing vet with me while we doctored my stuffed animals with band-aids and gauze under the ping-pong table. She had a great imagination and I wish that I would have had more time with her in my adult years so that I could have seen the world through her eyes. I was always impressed that she had traveled all around the world and I tried to listen closely to stories about her many trips. Jessie made you feel special and loved her family. I never heard her raise her voice in anger, and I remember her strong empathy for the poor children that she met in her travels. I loved the games of Tripoly that we would play with red licorice in our drinks. I will always cherish the times I had with my Grandmother.

Ohio, Birth Index, 1908-1964 about Roger E Wolfe

Name: Roger E Wolfe

Birth Date: 1 Sep 1920 [sic, 1 May 1920]

Birth Place: Pickaway

State File Number: 1920046743

Additional Information: Worthen

[Note: Several other records below show Roger's date-of-birth to be 1 May 1920, including his U.S. Social Security Death Record. It is hard to explain the date-of-birth on this Ohio Birth Index entry, except as a recording error.]

 

Roger Wolfe was born May 1, 1920 at the farm originally purchased by his Great-Great Grandfather Phillip. His childhood was spent at working on a nearby farm purchased by his father Earl. After graduating from Jackson County High School, Roger drove solo across the country on Route 66 to Los Angeles, California to attend the Aero Industries Technical Institute (1939-1940) to start a career in the aircraft industry. He paid his tuition by playing basketball. After graduation, Roger took a job at an airplane plant in Buffalo, N.Y. (1940-1941) to be closer to his future bride Jessie. His work focused on control surfaces for the Navy’s “Hell Diver” bomber. When a new factory (Curtis Wright Co.) that built this plane opened in Columbus, Ohio, Roger was among the original 100 men from Buffalo who started the factory. He was promoted to General Foreman and worked at Curtis Wright from 1941-1944. He married Jessie in June 21, 1941. Their daughter Suzanne was born on June 2, 1943. Roger joined the Air Corp (U.S. Army Air Force) in 1944 and was assigned to the Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico. While in Alamogordo, he taught himself plumbing so that he could get a home for his family on base. He recalled the whole family being awoken by a “big bang” which was rumored to be an explosion at an ammunition dump. Only later did he learn that the explosion they heard was the first atomic bomb test. He went to school in Denver, Colorado to learn how to service and maintain B-29 bombers (1944). While he was on emergency furlough due to the death of his sister Josephine, the rest of his unit deployed to the Pacific.  Roger was sent to Europe for 6 months in Ferstenfeldbuk, Germany (1946).  He chose to be a cook rather than take guard duty.  After discharge from the military, he started building houses and doing remodeling.  Daughter Joy was born March 25, 1948.  With partner Paul Seymour, he formed the Columbus Home Maintenance Co. in 1954.  Roger sold his share of Columbus Home Maintenance in 1960 and bought an interest in a plumbing business (J.A. Myers Co.).  Roger worked for J.A. Myers from 1960 to 1980 and became Vice President.  After retirement in 1980, Roger and Jessie focused their time on travel and family.  They moved to Brooksville, FL from 1982-1984 where they

enjoyed golfing and playing bridge, but later moved back to Columbus. They kept an apartment in Columbus but spent much of their time traveling in their RV. By the early 1990’s they had traveled extensively in North America and Europe, and explored South America, Australia and Asia. The death of Jessie in September of 1993 was devastating for Roger after 51 years of marriage. He joined a senior center and met Garnet Joslin, a widow. Roger married Garnet on December 23, 1994. They shared interests in travel, golf and chess. Garnet convinced Roger to take up ballroom dancing. Declining health and blindness made life difficult for Roger in his final years. In 2004, Roger said “I consider myself very fortunate to have lived during a period of development and most of all to have such a wonderful family...” Roger died on July 6, 2010.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Thoughts of My Dad by Joy Johnson from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Growing up on Elizabeth Avenue in Columbus, I remember how handy Dad was with any projects. He showed me how to use an electric drill and power saw. Knowing how to hit a nail came in especially handy when he helped Larry and me add a deck to our house in Knoxville. He was a talker, but helpful even when we wired an unfinished basement. When I was around eight he built me very high wooden stilts to walk around on, no one else had anything like that. Dad worked long days and on week-ends, so my sister Suzanne and I especially liked our annual camping trips. No one else had a school bus camper to brag about. Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family. We shared many Christmases together, filled with laughter, games and looking at old family slides.

 

Memories of Laura (Johnson) Cross & Elaine (Johnson) Bell from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Granddaddy always had a lap to sit on and a story to tell. He’d clasp those long, lean fingers together, lean back in his rocking chair and share stories of his childhood, the war, and how things work. Grandfather loved to impart wisdom from his past. He was a very interesting man to talk to. We will miss his unique sense of humor. Sometimes it was subtle so you had to pay attention. Grandfather was highly mechanically-minded. It made me feel important that he cared enough to patiently explain how something was built, or how it worked. Grandfather loved to travel. He taught two generations of family to play chess. Granddaddy helped Elaine catch her first fish and helped her learn how to dribble a basketball downhill on our driveway in Tennessee. Granddaddy also helped Laura build an Erector Set wave machine for her Science Fair Project in middle school. On a trip to Michigan, Granddaddy went to an air show where he was proud to show us the B-29 Bomber that he had worked on in his early years. He taught us to treat everyone with respect, to look people in the eye and learn what you could from them, even if they were Michigan fans. He was strong, quiet when he needed to be, knowledgeable, quick to tease, and offer a smile.

 

Memories of Roger Wolfe by Renee Mettle from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Grandfather’s travel photographs and stories opened the world to me. He taught me that one key to a good life was to experience new places. Grandfather loved to make us laugh. He started stories with “When I was a little girl...” Every summer he mentioned the high “humida-did-dity.” Grandfather loved learning. He always wanted to know what I was studying in school - especially science. He asked me questions until I had to use an encyclopedia to find the answer. We learned together. Grandfather loved puzzles. He could stare at jigsaw puzzle pieces and pick out exactly the right one.

Notes for Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach:

Photos in Album, Pages: 14,68,69

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was the spouse of Roger Earl Wolfe. She is also the 1st cousin, once removed of Gediliah Alexander Dresbach. Gediliah A. Dresbach was the husband of Candice Kay Harrington and father of their children.

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was born on July 13, 1920 in Circleville, Ohio. As a high school student she enjoyed singing in school plays and choir. She met Roger Wolfe at her piano teacher’s house after being introduced by another student, Roger’s sister Josephine. She graduated class valedictorian and earned a partial scholarship to Capital University in Bexley, OH. She earned room and board by working as a housekeeper at a private residence. She graduated magna cum laude and earned a teaching certificate in elementary education. Jessie taught 5th grade at High Street School in Circleille, OH (1939-1941). She used her first year’s earnings to repay a loan for her college tuition. Jessie became engaged to Roger in 1940. They married on June 21, 1941, and moved to a house in Columbus, OH on Elizabeth Ave. Jessie became a full-time homemaker with the birth of their first child, Suzanne Kay Wolfe, on June 2, 1942. When Roger moved to Denver with the Air Force, Jessie left Suzanne in the care of Warner and Myrtle Dresbach and followed him. The family home was rented out from 1943 to 1946. She worked as a salesperson at J.C. Penney in Denver, CO (1944). Jessie and Suzanne moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico for seven months in 1945 to be with Roger. Living in the apartment with the plumbing installed by her husband, Jessie had to haul 50 lb blocks of ice in a little cart since they didn’t have a refrigerator. Jessie taught 3rd grade in Circleville, OH (1945-46). After Roger returned from Germany in June 1946, they were finally able to return to their home in Columbus. Their second child, Joyce Elaine Wolfe, was born on March 25, 1948. Suzanne recalled that her mother worked very hard to save money by sewing clothes for the family and preparing budget meals while her father was starting his first business. Vacations often included camping as a way to save money, too. Roger bought an old school bus and converted it into a camper. Roger and Jessie joined First English Lutheran Church about 1949. Jessie taught in the church nursery for 11 years. Jessie’s life focused on raising her family until both daughters attended college. Her later years allowed her to pursue her passion for travel, a passion she shared with Roger. Jessie visited all 50 states in the U.S., 10 provinces in Canada, and 33 states in Mexico. Jessie and Roger were “world travelers” having visited 7 countries in South America; Egypt, 17 countries in Europe including Russia; Japan, China, Australia and New Zealand. Mostly Roger and Jessie traveled together, but Jessie went to Spain and Morocco with her sister Mabel and to England with her friend Shirley. Suzanne recalled that “Jessie loved to plan trips. She enjoyed studying maps.” Besides travel, her favorite activities were reading historical novels, dancing, singing, and dining out. Jessie died on September 14, 1993.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My grandmother Jessie had a wonderful, beautiful, big smile. When she sang lullabies to me as a young child, her voice was soft and low. She always put the pickle dish next to my place at her dinner table, because she knew how much I liked them. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same city where she lived, so I spent many family occasions with her and grandfather. As a child, I often got to stay with them on weekends. She taught me how to play “Crazy Eights” (card game) and “Scribbles” (make pictures out of random scribbles). I remember she liked to read and solve crossword puzzles. One of my favorite things to do at my grandparent’s house was to go down into the basement and see a slide show of their travels and listen to their stories. Grandmother liked to write letters and I enjoyed reading her messages from around the world.

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

I remember Grandmother Wolfe playing vet with me while we doctored my stuffed animals with band-aids and gauze under the ping-pong table. She had a great imagination and I wish that I would have had more time with her in my adult years so that I could have seen the world through her eyes. I was always impressed that she had traveled all around the world and I tried to listen closely to stories about her many trips. Jessie made you feel special and loved her family. I never heard her raise her voice in anger, and I remember her strong empathy for the poor children that she met in her travels. I loved the games of Tripoly that we would play with red licorice in our drinks. I will always cherish the times I had with my Grandmother.

Ohio, Birth Index, 1908-1964 about Roger E Wolfe

Name: Roger E Wolfe

Birth Date: 1 Sep 1920 [sic, 1 May 1920]

Birth Place: Pickaway

State File Number: 1920046743

Additional Information: Worthen

[Note: Several other records below show Roger's date-of-birth to be 1 May 1920, including his U.S. Social Security Death Record. It is hard to explain the date-of-birth on this Ohio Birth Index entry, except as a recording error.]

 

Roger Wolfe was born May 1, 1920 at the farm originally purchased by his Great-Great Grandfather Phillip. His childhood was spent at working on a nearby farm purchased by his father Earl. After graduating from Jackson County High School, Roger drove solo across the country on Route 66 to Los Angeles, California to attend the Aero Industries Technical Institute (1939-1940) to start a career in the aircraft industry. He paid his tuition by playing basketball. After graduation, Roger took a job at an airplane plant in Buffalo, N.Y. (1940-1941) to be closer to his future bride Jessie. His work focused on control surfaces for the Navy’s “Hell Diver” bomber. When a new factory (Curtis Wright Co.) that built this plane opened in Columbus, Ohio, Roger was among the original 100 men from Buffalo who started the factory. He was promoted to General Foreman and worked at Curtis Wright from 1941-1944. He married Jessie in June 21, 1941. Their daughter Suzanne was born on June 2, 1943. Roger joined the Air Corp (U.S. Army Air Force) in 1944 and was assigned to the Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico. While in Alamogordo, he taught himself plumbing so that he could get a home for his family on base. He recalled the whole family being awoken by a “big bang” which was rumored to be an explosion at an ammunition dump. Only later did he learn that the explosion they heard was the first atomic bomb test. He went to school in Denver, Colorado to learn how to service and maintain B-29 bombers (1944). While he was on emergency furlough due to the death of his sister Josephine, the rest of his unit deployed to the Pacific.  Roger was sent to Europe for 6 months in Ferstenfeldbuk, Germany (1946).  He chose to be a cook rather than take guard duty.  After discharge from the military, he started building houses and doing remodeling.  Daughter Joy was born March 25, 1948.  With partner Paul Seymour, he formed the Columbus Home Maintenance Co. in 1954.  Roger sold his share of Columbus Home Maintenance in 1960 and bought an interest in a plumbing business (J.A. Myers Co.).  Roger worked for J.A. Myers from 1960 to 1980 and became Vice President.  After retirement in 1980, Roger and Jessie focused their time on travel and family.  They moved to Brooksville, FL from 1982-1984 where they

enjoyed golfing and playing bridge, but later moved back to Columbus. They kept an apartment in Columbus but spent much of their time traveling in their RV. By the early 1990’s they had traveled extensively in North America and Europe, and explored South America, Australia and Asia. The death of Jessie in September of 1993 was devastating for Roger after 51 years of marriage. He joined a senior center and met Garnet Joslin, a widow. Roger married Garnet on December 23, 1994. They shared interests in travel, golf and chess. Garnet convinced Roger to take up ballroom dancing. Declining health and blindness made life difficult for Roger in his final years. In 2004, Roger said “I consider myself very fortunate to have lived during a period of development and most of all to have such a wonderful family...” Roger died on July 6, 2010.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Thoughts of My Dad by Joy Johnson from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Growing up on Elizabeth Avenue in Columbus, I remember how handy Dad was with any projects. He showed me how to use an electric drill and power saw. Knowing how to hit a nail came in especially handy when he helped Larry and me add a deck to our house in Knoxville. He was a talker, but helpful even when we wired an unfinished basement. When I was around eight he built me very high wooden stilts to walk around on, no one else had anything like that. Dad worked long days and on week-ends, so my sister Suzanne and I especially liked our annual camping trips. No one else had a school bus camper to brag about. Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family. We shared many Christmases together, filled with laughter, games and looking at old family slides.

Ohio, Birth Index, 1908-1964 about Roger E Wolfe

Name: Roger E Wolfe

Birth Date: 1 Sep 1920 [sic, 1 May 1920]

Birth Place: Pickaway

State File Number: 1920046743

Additional Information: Worthen

[Note: Several other records below show Roger's date-of-birth to be 1 May 1920, including his U.S. Social Security Death Record. It is hard to explain the date-of-birth on this Ohio Birth Index entry, except as a recording error.]

 

Roger Wolfe was born May 1, 1920 at the farm originally purchased by his Great-Great Grandfather Phillip. His childhood was spent at working on a nearby farm purchased by his father Earl. After graduating from Jackson County High School, Roger drove solo across the country on Route 66 to Los Angeles, California to attend the Aero Industries Technical Institute (1939-1940) to start a career in the aircraft industry. He paid his tuition by playing basketball. After graduation, Roger took a job at an airplane plant in Buffalo, N.Y. (1940-1941) to be closer to his future bride Jessie. His work focused on control surfaces for the Navy’s “Hell Diver” bomber. When a new factory (Curtis Wright Co.) that built this plane opened in Columbus, Ohio, Roger was among the original 100 men from Buffalo who started the factory. He was promoted to General Foreman and worked at Curtis Wright from 1941-1944. He married Jessie in June 21, 1941. Their daughter Suzanne was born on June 2, 1943. Roger joined the Air Corp (U.S. Army Air Force) in 1944 and was assigned to the Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico. While in Alamogordo, he taught himself plumbing so that he could get a home for his family on base. He recalled the whole family being awoken by a “big bang” which was rumored to be an explosion at an ammunition dump. Only later did he learn that the explosion they heard was the first atomic bomb test. He went to school in Denver, Colorado to learn how to service and maintain B-29 bombers (1944). While he was on emergency furlough due to the death of his sister Josephine, the rest of his unit deployed to the Pacific.  Roger was sent to Europe for 6 months in Ferstenfeldbuk, Germany (1946).  He chose to be a cook rather than take guard duty.  After discharge from the military, he started building houses and doing remodeling.  Daughter Joy was born March 25, 1948.  With partner Paul Seymour, he formed the Columbus Home Maintenance Co. in 1954.  Roger sold his share of Columbus Home Maintenance in 1960 and bought an interest in a plumbing business (J.A. Myers Co.).  Roger worked for J.A. Myers from 1960 to 1980 and became Vice President.  After retirement in 1980, Roger and Jessie focused their time on travel and family.  They moved to Brooksville, FL from 1982-1984 where they

enjoyed golfing and playing bridge, but later moved back to Columbus. They kept an apartment in Columbus but spent much of their time traveling in their RV. By the early 1990’s they had traveled extensively in North America and Europe, and explored South America, Australia and Asia. The death of Jessie in September of 1993 was devastating for Roger after 51 years of marriage. He joined a senior center and met Garnet Joslin, a widow. Roger married Garnet on December 23, 1994. They shared interests in travel, golf and chess. Garnet convinced Roger to take up ballroom dancing. Declining health and blindness made life difficult for Roger in his final years. In 2004, Roger said “I consider myself very fortunate to have lived during a period of development and most of all to have such a wonderful family...” Roger died on July 6, 2010.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Thoughts of My Dad by Joy Johnson from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Growing up on Elizabeth Avenue in Columbus, I remember how handy Dad was with any projects. He showed me how to use an electric drill and power saw. Knowing how to hit a nail came in especially handy when he helped Larry and me add a deck to our house in Knoxville. He was a talker, but helpful even when we wired an unfinished basement. When I was around eight he built me very high wooden stilts to walk around on, no one else had anything like that. Dad worked long days and on week-ends, so my sister Suzanne and I especially liked our annual camping trips. No one else had a school bus camper to brag about. Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family. We shared many Christmases together, filled with laughter, games and looking at old family slides.

 

Memories of Laura (Johnson) Cross & Elaine (Johnson) Bell from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Granddaddy always had a lap to sit on and a story to tell. He’d clasp those long, lean fingers together, lean back in his rocking chair and share stories of his childhood, the war, and how things work. Grandfather loved to impart wisdom from his past. He was a very interesting man to talk to. We will miss his unique sense of humor. Sometimes it was subtle so you had to pay attention. Grandfather was highly mechanically-minded. It made me feel important that he cared enough to patiently explain how something was built, or how it worked. Grandfather loved to travel. He taught two generations of family to play chess. Granddaddy helped Elaine catch her first fish and helped her learn how to dribble a basketball downhill on our driveway in Tennessee. Granddaddy also helped Laura build an Erector Set wave machine for her Science Fair Project in middle school. On a trip to Michigan, Granddaddy went to an air show where he was proud to show us the B-29 Bomber that he had worked on in his early years. He taught us to treat everyone with respect, to look people in the eye and learn what you could from them, even if they were Michigan fans. He was strong, quiet when he needed to be, knowledgeable, quick to tease, and offer a smile.

 

Memories of Roger Wolfe by Renee Mettle from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Grandfather’s travel photographs and stories opened the world to me. He taught me that one key to a good life was to experience new places. Grandfather loved to make us laugh. He started stories with “When I was a little girl...” Every summer he mentioned the high “humida-did-dity.” Grandfather loved learning. He always wanted to know what I was studying in school - especially science. He asked me questions until I had to use an encyclopedia to find the answer. We learned together. Grandfather loved puzzles. He could stare at jigsaw puzzle pieces and pick out exactly the right one.

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach, daughter of Warner Lodge Dresbach and Myrtle May Rudisill, was born on 13 Jul 1920. She died on 14 Sep 1993. She married Roger Earl Wolfe on 21 Jun 1941 in Circleville, Ohio, Pickaway County, Ohio. He was born on 01 May 1920 in Pickaway County, Ohio. He died on 06 Jul 2010.

 

Notes for Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach:

Photos in Album, Pages: 14,68,69

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was the spouse of Roger Earl Wolfe. She is also the 1st cousin, once removed of Gediliah Alexander Dresbach. Gediliah A. Dresbach was the husband of Candice Kay Harrington and father of their children.

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was born on July 13, 1920 in Circleville, Ohio. As a high school student she enjoyed singing in school plays and choir. She met Roger Wolfe at her piano teacher’s house after being introduced by another student, Roger’s sister Josephine. She graduated class valedictorian and earned a partial scholarship to Capital University in Bexley, OH. She earned room and board by working as a housekeeper at a private residence. She graduated magna cum laude and earned a teaching certificate in elementary education. Jessie taught 5th grade at High Street School in Circleille, OH (1939-1941). She used her first year’s earnings to repay a loan for her college tuition. Jessie became engaged to Roger in 1940. They married on June 21, 1941, and moved to a house in Columbus, OH on Elizabeth Ave. Jessie became a full-time homemaker with the birth of their first child, Suzanne Kay Wolfe, on June 2, 1942. When Roger moved to Denver with the Air Force, Jessie left Suzanne in the care of Warner and Myrtle Dresbach and followed him. The family home was rented out from 1943 to 1946. She worked as a salesperson at J.C. Penney in Denver, CO (1944). Jessie and Suzanne moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico for seven months in 1945 to be with Roger. Living in the apartment with the plumbing installed by her husband, Jessie had to haul 50 lb blocks of ice in a little cart since they didn’t have a refrigerator. Jessie taught 3rd grade in Circleville, OH (1945-46). After Roger returned from Germany in June 1946, they were finally able to return to their home in Columbus. Their second child, Joyce Elaine Wolfe, was born on March 25, 1948. Suzanne recalled that her mother worked very hard to save money by sewing clothes for the family and preparing budget meals while her father was starting his first business. Vacations often included camping as a way to save money, too. Roger bought an old school bus and converted it into a camper. Roger and Jessie joined First English Lutheran Church about 1949. Jessie taught in the church nursery for 11 years. Jessie’s life focused on raising her family until both daughters attended college. Her later years allowed her to pursue her passion for travel, a passion she shared with Roger. Jessie visited all 50 states in the U.S., 10 provinces in Canada, and 33 states in Mexico. Jessie and Roger were “world travelers” having visited 7 countries in South America; Egypt, 17 countries in Europe including Russia; Japan, China, Australia and New Zealand. Mostly Roger and Jessie traveled together, but Jessie went to Spain and Morocco with her sister Mabel and to England with her friend Shirley. Suzanne recalled that “Jessie loved to plan trips. She enjoyed studying maps.” Besides travel, her favorite activities were reading historical novels, dancing, singing, and dining out. Jessie died on September 14, 1993.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My grandmother Jessie had a wonderful, beautiful, big smile. When she sang lullabies to me as a young child, her voice was soft and low. She always put the pickle dish next to my place at her dinner table, because she knew how much I liked them. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same city where she lived, so I spent many family occasions with her and grandfather. As a child, I often got to stay with them on weekends. She taught me how to play “Crazy Eights” (card game) and “Scribbles” (make pictures out of random scribbles). I remember she liked to read and solve crossword puzzles. One of my favorite things to do at my grandparent’s house was to go down into the basement and see a slide show of their travels and listen to their stories. Grandmother liked to write letters and I enjoyed reading her messages from around the world.

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

I remember Grandmother Wolfe playing vet with me while we doctored my stuffed animals with band-aids and gauze under the ping-pong table. She had a great imagination and I wish that I would have had more time with her in my adult years so that I could have seen the world through her eyes. I was always impressed that she had traveled all around the world and I tried to listen closely to stories about her many trips. Jessie made you feel special and loved her family. I never heard her raise her voice in anger, and I remember her strong empathy for the poor children that she met in her travels. I loved the games of Tripoly that we would play with red licorice in our drinks. I will always cherish the times I had with my Grandmother.

They married on June 21, 1941, and moved to a house in Columbus, OH on Elizabeth Ave. Jessie became a full-time homemaker with the birth of their first child, Suzanne Kay Wolfe, on June 2, 1942. When Roger moved to Denver with the Air Force, Jessie left Suzanne in the care of Warner and Myrtle Dresbach and followed him. The family home was rented out from 1943 to 1946. She worked as a salesperson at J.C. Penney in Denver, CO (1944). Jessie and Suzanne moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico for seven months in 1945 to be with Roger. Living in the apartment with the plumbing installed by her husband, Jessie had to haul 50 lb blocks of ice in a little cart since they didn’t have a refrigerator. Jessie taught 3rd grade in Circleville, OH (1945-46). After Roger returned from Germany in June 1946, they were finally able to return to their home in Columbus. Their second child, Joyce Elaine Wolfe, was born on March 25, 1948. Suzanne recalled that her mother worked very hard to save money by sewing clothes for the family and preparing budget meals while her father was starting his first business. Vacations often included camping as a way to save money, too. Roger bought an old school bus and converted it into a camper. Roger and Jessie joined First English Lutheran Church about 1949. Jessie taught in the church nursery for 11 years. Jessie’s life focused on raising her family until both daughters attended college. Her later years allowed her to pursue her passion for travel, a passion she shared with Roger. Jessie visited all 50 states in the U.S., 10 provinces in Canada, and 33 states in Mexico. Jessie and Roger were “world travelers” having visited 7 countries in South America; Egypt, 17 countries in Europe including Russia; Japan, China, Australia and New Zealand. Mostly Roger and Jessie traveled together, but Jessie went to Spain and Morocco with her sister Mabel and to England with her friend Shirley. Suzanne recalled that “Jessie loved to plan trips. She enjoyed studying maps.” Besides travel, her favorite activities were reading historical novels, dancing, singing, and dining out. Jessie died on September 14, 1993.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My grandmother Jessie had a wonderful, beautiful, big smile. When she sang lullabies to me as a young child, her voice was soft and low. She always put the pickle dish next to my place at her dinner table, because she knew how much I liked them. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same city where she lived, so I spent many family occasions with her and grandfather. As a child, I often got to stay with them on weekends. She taught me how to play “Crazy Eights” (card game) and “Scribbles” (make pictures out of random scribbles). I remember she liked to read and solve crossword puzzles. One of my favorite things to do at my grandparent’s house was to go down into the basement and see a slide show of their travels and listen to their stories. Grandmother liked to write letters and I enjoyed reading her messages from around the world.

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

I remember Grandmother Wolfe playing vet with me while we doctored my stuffed animals with band-aids and gauze under the ping-pong table. She had a great imagination and I wish that I would have had more time with her in my adult years so that I could have seen the world through her eyes. I was always impressed that she had traveled all around the world and I tried to listen closely to stories about her many trips. Jessie made you feel special and loved her family. I never heard her raise her voice in anger, and I remember her strong empathy for the poor children that she met in her travels. I loved the games of Tripoly that we would play with red licorice in our drinks. I will always cherish the times I had with my Grandmother.

Ohio, Birth Index, 1908-1964 about Roger E Wolfe

Name: Roger E Wolfe

Birth Date: 1 Sep 1920 [sic, 1 May 1920]

Birth Place: Pickaway

State File Number: 1920046743

Additional Information: Worthen

[Note: Several other records below show Roger's date-of-birth to be 1 May 1920, including his U.S. Social Security Death Record. It is hard to explain the date-of-birth on this Ohio Birth Index entry, except as a recording error.]

 

Roger Wolfe was born May 1, 1920 at the farm originally purchased by his Great-Great Grandfather Phillip. His childhood was spent at working on a nearby farm purchased by his father Earl. After graduating from Jackson County High School, Roger drove solo across the country on Route 66 to Los Angeles, California to attend the Aero Industries Technical Institute (1939-1940) to start a career in the aircraft industry. He paid his tuition by playing basketball. After graduation, Roger took a job at an airplane plant in Buffalo, N.Y. (1940-1941) to be closer to his future bride Jessie. His work focused on control surfaces for the Navy’s “Hell Diver” bomber. When a new factory (Curtis Wright Co.) that built this plane opened in Columbus, Ohio, Roger was among the original 100 men from Buffalo who started the factory. He was promoted to General Foreman and worked at Curtis Wright from 1941-1944. He married Jessie in June 21, 1941. Their daughter Suzanne was born on June 2, 1943. Roger joined the Air Corp (U.S. Army Air Force) in 1944 and was assigned to the Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico. While in Alamogordo, he taught himself plumbing so that he could get a home for his family on base. He recalled the whole family being awoken by a “big bang” which was rumored to be an explosion at an ammunition dump. Only later did he learn that the explosion they heard was the first atomic bomb test. He went to school in Denver, Colorado to learn how to service and maintain B-29 bombers (1944). While he was on emergency furlough due to the death of his sister Josephine, the rest of his unit deployed to the Pacific.  Roger was sent to Europe for 6 months in Ferstenfeldbuk, Germany (1946).  He chose to be a cook rather than take guard duty.  After discharge from the military, he started building houses and doing remodeling.  Daughter Joy was born March 25, 1948.  With partner Paul Seymour, he formed the Columbus Home Maintenance Co. in 1954.  Roger sold his share of Columbus Home Maintenance in 1960 and bought an interest in a plumbing business (J.A. Myers Co.).  Roger worked for J.A. Myers from 1960 to 1980 and became Vice President.  After retirement in 1980, Roger and Jessie focused their time on travel and family.  They moved to Brooksville, FL from 1982-1984 where they

enjoyed golfing and playing bridge, but later moved back to Columbus. They kept an apartment in Columbus but spent much of their time traveling in their RV. By the early 1990’s they had traveled extensively in North America and Europe, and explored South America, Australia and Asia. The death of Jessie in September of 1993 was devastating for Roger after 51 years of marriage. He joined a senior center and met Garnet Joslin, a widow. Roger married Garnet on December 23, 1994. They shared interests in travel, golf and chess. Garnet convinced Roger to take up ballroom dancing. Declining health and blindness made life difficult for Roger in his final years. In 2004, Roger said “I consider myself very fortunate to have lived during a period of development and most of all to have such a wonderful family...” Roger died on July 6, 2010.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Thoughts of My Dad by Joy Johnson from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Growing up on Elizabeth Avenue in Columbus, I remember how handy Dad was with any projects. He showed me how to use an electric drill and power saw. Knowing how to hit a nail came in especially handy when he helped Larry and me add a deck to our house in Knoxville. He was a talker, but helpful even when we wired an unfinished basement. When I was around eight he built me very high wooden stilts to walk around on, no one else had anything like that. Dad worked long days and on week-ends, so my sister Suzanne and I especially liked our annual camping trips. No one else had a school bus camper to brag about. Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family. We shared many Christmases together, filled with laughter, games and looking at old family slides.

 

Memories of Laura (Johnson) Cross & Elaine (Johnson) Bell from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Granddaddy always had a lap to sit on and a story to tell. He’d clasp those long, lean fingers together, lean back in his rocking chair and share stories of his childhood, the war, and how things work. Grandfather loved to impart wisdom from his past. He was a very interesting man to talk to. We will miss his unique sense of humor. Sometimes it was subtle so you had to pay attention. Grandfather was highly mechanically-minded. It made me feel important that he cared enough to patiently explain how something was built, or how it worked. Grandfather loved to travel. He taught two generations of family to play chess. Granddaddy helped Elaine catch her first fish and helped her learn how to dribble a basketball downhill on our driveway in Tennessee. Granddaddy also helped Laura build an Erector Set wave machine for her Science Fair Project in middle school. On a trip to Michigan, Granddaddy went to an air show where he was proud to show us the B-29 Bomber that he had worked on in his early years. He taught us to treat everyone with respect, to look people in the eye and learn what you could from them, even if they were Michigan fans. He was strong, quiet when he needed to be, knowledgeable, quick to tease, and offer a smile.

 

Memories of Roger Wolfe by Renee Mettle from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Grandfather’s travel photographs and stories opened the world to me. He taught me that one key to a good life was to experience new places. Grandfather loved to make us laugh. He started stories with “When I was a little girl...” Every summer he mentioned the high “humida-did-dity.” Grandfather loved learning. He always wanted to know what I was studying in school - especially science. He asked me questions until I had to use an encyclopedia to find the answer. We learned together. Grandfather loved puzzles. He could stare at jigsaw puzzle pieces and pick out exactly the right one.

Notes for Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach:

Photos in Album, Pages: 14,68,69

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was the spouse of Roger Earl Wolfe. She is also the 1st cousin, once removed of Gediliah Alexander Dresbach. Gediliah A. Dresbach was the husband of Candice Kay Harrington and father of their children.

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was born on July 13, 1920 in Circleville, Ohio. As a high school student she enjoyed singing in school plays and choir. She met Roger Wolfe at her piano teacher’s house after being introduced by another student, Roger’s sister Josephine. She graduated class valedictorian and earned a partial scholarship to Capital University in Bexley, OH. She earned room and board by working as a housekeeper at a private residence. She graduated magna cum laude and earned a teaching certificate in elementary education. Jessie taught 5th grade at High Street School in Circleille, OH (1939-1941). She used her first year’s earnings to repay a loan for her college tuition. Jessie became engaged to Roger in 1940. They married on June 21, 1941, and moved to a house in Columbus, OH on Elizabeth Ave. Jessie became a full-time homemaker with the birth of their first child, Suzanne Kay Wolfe, on June 2, 1942. When Roger moved to Denver with the Air Force, Jessie left Suzanne in the care of Warner and Myrtle Dresbach and followed him. The family home was rented out from 1943 to 1946. She worked as a salesperson at J.C. Penney in Denver, CO (1944). Jessie and Suzanne moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico for seven months in 1945 to be with Roger.

Jessie taught 3rd grade in Circleville, OH (1945-46). After Roger returned from Germany in June 1946, they were finally able to return to their home in Columbus. Their second child, Joyce Elaine Wolfe, was born on March 25, 1948. Suzanne recalled that her mother worked very hard to save money by sewing clothes for the family and preparing budget meals while her father was starting his first business.

He taught us to treat everyone with respect, to look people in the eye and learn what you could from them, even if they were Michigan fans. He was strong, quiet when he needed to be, knowledgeable, quick to tease, and offer a smile.

 

Memories of Roger Wolfe by Renee Mettle from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Grandfather’s travel photographs and stories opened the world to me. He taught me that one key to a good life was to experience new places. Grandfather loved to make us laugh. He started stories with “When I was a little girl...” Every summer he mentioned the high “humida-did-dity.” Grandfather loved learning. He always wanted to know what I was studying in school - especially science. He asked me questions until I had to use an encyclopedia to find the answer. We learned together. Grandfather loved puzzles. He could stare at jigsaw puzzle pieces and pick out exactly the right one.

Notes for Richard Ferriman Dresbach:

         Funny how often little, insignificant things in one's memory, get brought to the surface through genealogy research. Richard Dresbach is a case in point. When I (the author) was a boy living in the country about 3-miles east of Circleville, Ohio, Richard Ferriman Dresbach was a distant (1/4-mile) neighbor from my parents house. He had a farm that was located adjacent to the United Brethern Morris Church. While his farm was adjacent, his house was located about 1,000-yards from the church. This was the church that my brother, William Young Harrington, and I attended and in which Richard Dresbach was an important officer. Also going to the Morris Church, as we called it, was a school classmate of mine, Kathryn June Morris, far-and-away the smartest person in my class. Being a rural, agricultural community the houses were sparcely located on their 100-to-300 acre farms and Kathryn Morris' family drove several miles each Sunday to attend church. I mention the Kathryn Morris family because I was fortunate enough to enlist Kathryn in helping me recreate the memory of the Richard Dresbach family.

         Richard Dresbach's brother, Warner Lodge Dresbach, was the father of Jessie Rosaltha Dresbach who married Roger Earl Wolfe, the younger brother of Russell Franklin Wolfe (Lois Ann Wolfe's father).

         Richard Dresbach was a tall slim man with a big voice. He was a successful dairy farmer who owned a Holstein herd. Richard and his family were hard workers who in addition to maintaining their dairy herd, spent most of the summer making hay and raising corn to fill two large silos with ensilage for winter feed. He had 9-children, all a generation older than me. The family kept pretty much to themselves which made Richard's prominent role in the life of the church somewhat anomalous. Perhaps, however, it reflected his role within his own family. Living close to the Morris Church, Richard opened the church for Sunday morning services and looked after the comforts of the congregation by lighting the furnace in the winter and opening the windows on hot summer days.

         The Morris Church was initially a one-room structure typical of many small country churches built at the turn of the 20th century. It differed in that it was constructed of brick. It had a single large front door that entered into a vestibule that was nearly the width of the church building, except for a closet-style room on the left where the rope for the large church bell hung and could be rung by hand. There was also a coat-rack and a small cupboard that had been added to store church books, brochures, etc. But the most important role of this vestibule was that it was where the church segregated its congregation. Two doors led from the vestibule to the nave of the church. Inside the nave there was a center aisle that separated the bench-seating into two sections. Women and children sat on the left with the children at the front of this section. Men sat on the bench-seating on the right. There were only two exceptions to this seating arrangement. Immediately inside the nave, located between the two entrance doors and back against the wall of the two entrance doors, were two short bench-seats where the teenage boys sat. The other exception was a set of two or three bench-seats located on the right side of the chancel for the choir.

         Richard Dresbach was a pillar of the church. I don't know his title; perhaps the president or vice president. He had an active role in every church service: tending the board mounted on the chancel wall announcing the page-number of hymns for the service; selecting the pictures on a large easel for display at the appropriate service; reading the church business for a service-a-year-ago, and more. He always occupied the end seat on the far-right in the first row - it became recognized as his unofficial seat. During the sermon, Richard could always be counted on in spontaneity and volume to lead the congregational chorus of "Amen." There was little doubt about his sincerity and willingness to lead.

         Richard Ferriman Dresbach was a good man who personified the strongly religious agragian families of the 19th and early 20th centuries in Ohio.

Also going to the Morris Church, as we called it, was a school classmate of mine, Kathryn June Morris, far-and-away the smartest person in my class. Being a rural, agricultural community the houses were sparcely located on their 100-to-300 acre farms and Kathryn Morris' family drove several miles each Sunday to attend church. I mention the Kathryn Morris family because I was fortunate enough to enlist Kathryn in helping me recreate the memory of the Richard Dresbach family.

         Richard Dresbach's brother, Warner Lodge Dresbach, was the father of Jessie Rosaltha Dresbach who married Roger Earl Wolfe, the younger brother of Russell Franklin Wolfe (Lois Ann Wolfe's father).

         Richard Dresbach was a tall slim man with a big voice. He was a successful dairy farmer who owned a Holstein herd. Richard and his family were hard workers who in addition to maintaining their dairy herd, spent most of the summer making hay and raising corn to fill two large silos with ensilage for winter feed. He had 9-children, all a generation older than me. The family kept pretty much to themselves which made Richard's prominent role in the life of the church somewhat anomalous. Perhaps, however, it reflected his role within his own family. Living close to the Morris Church, Richard opened the church for Sunday morning services and looked after the comforts of the congregation by lighting the furnace in the winter and opening the windows on hot summer days.

         The Morris Church was initially a one-room structure typical of many small country churches built at the turn of the 20th century. It differed in that it was constructed of brick. It had a single large front door that entered into a vestibule that was nearly the width of the church building, except for a closet-style room on the left where the rope for the large church bell hung and could be rung by hand. There was also a coat-rack and a small cupboard that had been added to store church books, brochures, etc. But the most important role of this vestibule was that it was where the church segregated its congregation. Two doors led from the vestibule to the nave of the church. Inside the nave there was a center aisle that separated the bench-seating into two sections. Women and children sat on the left with the children at the front of this section. Men sat on the bench-seating on the right. There were only two exceptions to this seating arrangement. Immediately inside the nave, located between the two entrance doors and back against the wall of the two entrance doors, were two short bench-seats where the teenage boys sat. The other exception was a set of two or three bench-seats located on the right side of the chancel for the choir.

         Richard Dresbach was a pillar of the church. I don't know his title; perhaps the president or vice president. He had an active role in every church service: tending the board mounted on the chancel wall announcing the page-number of hymns for the service; selecting the pictures on a large easel for display at the appropriate service; reading the church business for a service-a-year-ago, and more. He always occupied the end seat on the far-right in the first row - it became recognized as his unofficial seat. During the sermon, Richard could always be counted on in spontaneity and volume to lead the congregational chorus of "Amen." There was little doubt about his sincerity and willingness to lead.

         Richard Ferriman Dresbach was a good man who personified the strongly religious agragian families of the 19th and early 20th centuries in Ohio.

Notes for Richard Ferriman Dresbach:

         Funny how often little, insignificant things in one's memory, get brought to the surface through genealogy research. Richard Dresbach is a case in point. When I (the author) was a boy living in the country about 3-miles east of Circleville, Ohio, Richard Ferriman Dresbach was a distant (1/4-mile) neighbor from my parents house. He had a farm that was located adjacent to the United Brethern Morris Church. While his farm was adjacent, his house was located about 1,000-yards from the church. This was the church that my brother, William Young Harrington, and I attended and in which Richard Dresbach was an important officer. Also going to the Morris Church, as we called it, was a school classmate of mine, Kathryn June Morris, far-and-away the smartest person in my class. Being a rural, agricultural community the houses were sparcely located on their 100-to-300 acre farms and Kathryn Morris' family drove several miles each Sunday to attend church. I mention the Kathryn Morris family because I was fortunate enough to enlist Kathryn in helping me recreate the memory of the Richard Dresbach family.

Notes for Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach:

Photos in Album, Pages: 14,68,69

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was the spouse of Roger Earl Wolfe. She is also the 1st cousin, once removed of Gediliah Alexander Dresbach. Gediliah A. Dresbach was the husband of Candice Kay Harrington and father of their children.

 

Jessie Rosealtha Dresbach was born on July 13, 1920 in Circleville, Ohio. As a high school student she enjoyed singing in school plays and choir. She met Roger Wolfe at her piano teacher’s house after being introduced by another student, Roger’s sister Josephine. She graduated class valedictorian and earned a partial scholarship to Capital University in Bexley, OH. She earned room and board by working as a housekeeper at a private residence. She graduated magna cum laude and earned a teaching certificate in elementary education. Jessie taught 5th grade at High Street School in Circleille, OH (1939-1941). She used her first year’s earnings to repay a loan for her college tuition. Jessie became engaged to Roger in 1940. They married on June 21, 1941, and moved to a house in Columbus, OH on Elizabeth Ave. Jessie became a full-time homemaker with the birth of their first child, Suzanne Kay Wolfe, on June 2, 1942. When Roger moved to Denver with the Air Force, Jessie left Suzanne in the care of Warner and Myrtle Dresbach and followed him. The family home was rented out from 1943 to 1946. She worked as a salesperson at J.C. Penney in Denver, CO (1944). Jessie and Suzanne moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico for seven months in 1945 to be with Roger. Living in the apartment with the plumbing installed by her husband, Jessie had to haul 50 lb blocks of ice in a little cart since they didn’t have a refrigerator. Jessie taught 3rd grade in Circleville, OH (1945-46). After Roger returned from Germany in June 1946, they were finally able to return to their home in Columbus. Their second child, Joyce Elaine Wolfe, was born on March 25, 1948. Suzanne recalled that her mother worked very hard to save money by sewing clothes for the family and preparing budget meals while her father was starting his first business. Vacations often included camping as a way to save money, too. Roger bought an old school bus and converted it into a camper. Roger and Jessie joined First English Lutheran Church about 1949. Jessie taught in the church nursery for 11 years. Jessie’s life focused on raising her family until both daughters attended college. Her later years allowed her to pursue her passion for travel, a passion she shared with Roger. Jessie visited all 50 states in the U.S., 10 provinces in Canada, and 33 states in Mexico. Jessie and Roger were “world travelers” having visited 7 countries in South America; Egypt, 17 countries in Europe including Russia; Japan, China, Australia and New Zealand. Mostly Roger and Jessie traveled together, but Jessie went to Spain and Morocco with her sister Mabel and to England with her friend Shirley. Suzanne recalled that “Jessie loved to plan trips. She enjoyed studying maps.” Besides travel, her favorite activities were reading historical novels, dancing, singing, and dining out. Jessie died on September 14, 1993.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My grandmother Jessie had a wonderful, beautiful, big smile. When she sang lullabies to me as a young child, her voice was soft and low. She always put the pickle dish next to my place at her dinner table, because she knew how much I liked them. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same city where she lived, so I spent many family occasions with her and grandfather. As a child, I often got to stay with them on weekends. She taught me how to play “Crazy Eights” (card game) and “Scribbles” (make pictures out of random scribbles). I remember she liked to read and solve crossword puzzles. One of my favorite things to do at my grandparent’s house was to go down into the basement and see a slide show of their travels and listen to their stories. Grandmother liked to write letters and I enjoyed reading her messages from around the world.

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

I remember Grandmother Wolfe playing vet with me while we doctored my stuffed animals with band-aids and gauze under the ping-pong table. She had a great imagination and I wish that I would have had more time with her in my adult years so that I could have seen the world through her eyes. I was always impressed that she had traveled all around the world and I tried to listen closely to stories about her many trips. Jessie made you feel special and loved her family. I never heard her raise her voice in anger, and I remember her strong empathy for the poor children that she met in her travels. I loved the games of Tripoly that we would play with red licorice in our drinks. I will always cherish the times I had with my Grandmother.

Jessie taught in the church nursery for 11 years. Jessie’s life focused on raising her family until both daughters attended college. Her later years allowed her to pursue her passion for travel, a passion she shared with Roger. Jessie visited all 50 states in the U.S., 10 provinces in Canada, and 33 states in Mexico. Jessie and Roger were “world travelers” having visited 7 countries in South America; Egypt, 17 countries in Europe including Russia; Japan, China, Australia and New Zealand. Mostly Roger and Jessie traveled together, but Jessie went to Spain and Morocco with her sister Mabel and to England with her friend Shirley. Suzanne recalled that “Jessie loved to plan trips. She enjoyed studying maps.” Besides travel, her favorite activities were reading historical novels, dancing, singing, and dining out. Jessie died on September 14, 1993.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My grandmother Jessie had a wonderful, beautiful, big smile. When she sang lullabies to me as a young child, her voice was soft and low. She always put the pickle dish next to my place at her dinner table, because she knew how much I liked them. I was lucky enough to grow up in the same city where she lived, so I spent many family occasions with her and grandfather. As a child, I often got to stay with them on weekends. She taught me how to play “Crazy Eights” (card game) and “Scribbles” (make pictures out of random scribbles). I remember she liked to read and solve crossword puzzles. One of my favorite things to do at my grandparent’s house was to go down into the basement and see a slide show of their travels and listen to their stories. Grandmother liked to write letters and I enjoyed reading her messages from around the world.

 

Memories of Jessie Wolfe by Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

I remember Grandmother Wolfe playing vet with me while we doctored my stuffed animals with band-aids and gauze under the ping-pong table. She had a great imagination and I wish that I would have had more time with her in my adult years so that I could have seen the world through her eyes. I was always impressed that she had traveled all around the world and I tried to listen closely to stories about her many trips. Jessie made you feel special and loved her family. I never heard her raise her voice in anger, and I remember her strong empathy for the poor children that she met in her travels. I loved the games of Tripoly that we would play with red licorice in our drinks. I will always cherish the times I had with my Grandmother.

Ohio, Birth Index, 1908-1964 about Roger E Wolfe

Name: Roger E Wolfe

Birth Date: 1 Sep 1920 [sic, 1 May 1920]

Birth Place: Pickaway

State File Number: 1920046743

Additional Information: Worthen

[Note: Several other records below show Roger's date-of-birth to be 1 May 1920, including his U.S. Social Security Death Record. It is hard to explain the date-of-birth on this Ohio Birth Index entry, except as a recording error.]

 

Roger Wolfe was born May 1, 1920 at the farm originally purchased by his Great-Great Grandfather Phillip. His childhood was spent at working on a nearby farm purchased by his father Earl. After graduating from Jackson County High School, Roger drove solo across the country on Route 66 to Los Angeles, California to attend the Aero Industries Technical Institute (1939-1940) to start a career in the aircraft industry. He paid his tuition by playing basketball. After graduation, Roger took a job at an airplane plant in Buffalo, N.Y. (1940-1941) to be closer to his future bride Jessie. His work focused on control surfaces for the Navy’s “Hell Diver” bomber. When a new factory (Curtis Wright Co.) that built this plane opened in Columbus, Ohio, Roger was among the original 100 men from Buffalo who started the factory. He was promoted to General Foreman and worked at Curtis Wright from 1941-1944. He married Jessie in June 21, 1941. Their daughter Suzanne was born on June 2, 1943. Roger joined the Air Corp (U.S. Army Air Force) in 1944 and was assigned to the Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico. While in Alamogordo, he taught himself plumbing so that he could get a home for his family on base. He recalled the whole family being awoken by a “big bang” which was rumored to be an explosion at an ammunition dump. Only later did he learn that the explosion they heard was the first atomic bomb test. He went to school in Denver, Colorado to learn how to service and maintain B-29 bombers (1944). While he was on emergency furlough due to the death of his sister Josephine, the rest of his unit deployed to the Pacific.  Roger was sent to Europe for 6 months in Ferstenfeldbuk, Germany (1946).  He chose to be a cook rather than take guard duty.  After discharge from the military, he started building houses and doing remodeling.  Daughter Joy was born March 25, 1948.  With partner Paul Seymour, he formed the Columbus Home Maintenance Co. in 1954.  Roger sold his share of Columbus Home Maintenance in 1960 and bought an interest in a plumbing business (J.A. Myers Co.).  Roger worked for J.A. Myers from 1960 to 1980 and became Vice President.  After retirement in 1980, Roger and Jessie focused their time on travel and family.  They moved to Brooksville, FL from 1982-1984 where they

enjoyed golfing and playing bridge, but later moved back to Columbus. They kept an apartment in Columbus but spent much of their time traveling in their RV. By the early 1990’s they had traveled extensively in North America and Europe, and explored South America, Australia and Asia. The death of Jessie in September of 1993 was devastating for Roger after 51 years of marriage. He joined a senior center and met Garnet Joslin, a widow. Roger married Garnet on December 23, 1994. They shared interests in travel, golf and chess. Garnet convinced Roger to take up ballroom dancing. Declining health and blindness made life difficult for Roger in his final years. In 2004, Roger said “I consider myself very fortunate to have lived during a period of development and most of all to have such a wonderful family...” Roger died on July 6, 2010.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Thoughts of My Dad by Joy Johnson from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Growing up on Elizabeth Avenue in Columbus, I remember how handy Dad was with any projects. He showed me how to use an electric drill and power saw. Knowing how to hit a nail came in especially handy when he helped Larry and me add a deck to our house in Knoxville. He was a talker, but helpful even when we wired an unfinished basement. When I was around eight he built me very high wooden stilts to walk around on, no one else had anything like that. Dad worked long days and on week-ends, so my sister Suzanne and I especially liked our annual camping trips. No one else had a school bus camper to brag about. Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family. We shared many Christmases together, filled with laughter, games and looking at old family slides.

 

Memories of Laura (Johnson) Cross & Elaine (Johnson) Bell from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Granddaddy always had a lap to sit on and a story to tell. He’d clasp those long, lean fingers together, lean back in his rocking chair and share stories of his childhood, the war, and how things work. Grandfather loved to impart wisdom from his past. He was a very interesting man to talk to. We will miss his unique sense of humor. Sometimes it was subtle so you had to pay attention. Grandfather was highly mechanically-minded. It made me feel important that he cared enough to patiently explain how something was built, or how it worked. Grandfather loved to travel. He taught two generations of family to play chess. Granddaddy helped Elaine catch her first fish and helped her learn how to dribble a basketball downhill on our driveway in Tennessee. Granddaddy also helped Laura build an Erector Set wave machine for her Science Fair Project in middle school. On a trip to Michigan, Granddaddy went to an air show where he was proud to show us the B-29 Bomber that he had worked on in his early years. He taught us to treat everyone with respect, to look people in the eye and learn what you could from them, even if they were Michigan fans. He was strong, quiet when he needed to be, knowledgeable, quick to tease, and offer a smile.

 

Memories of Roger Wolfe by Renee Mettle from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Grandfather’s travel photographs and stories opened the world to me. He taught me that one key to a good life was to experience new places. Grandfather loved to make us laugh. He started stories with “When I was a little girl...” Every summer he mentioned the high “humida-did-dity.” Grandfather loved learning. He always wanted to know what I was studying in school - especially science. He asked me questions until I had to use an encyclopedia to find the answer. We learned together. Grandfather loved puzzles. He could stare at jigsaw puzzle pieces and pick out exactly the right one.

Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family. We shared many Christmases together, filled with laughter, games and looking at old family slides.

 

Memories of Laura (Johnson) Cross & Elaine (Johnson) Bell from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Granddaddy always had a lap to sit on and a story to tell. He’d clasp those long, lean fingers together, lean back in his rocking chair and share stories of his childhood, the war, and how things work. Grandfather loved to impart wisdom from his past. He was a very interesting man to talk to. We will miss his unique sense of humor. Sometimes it was subtle so you had to pay attention. Grandfather was highly mechanically-minded. It made me feel important that he cared enough to patiently explain how something was built, or how it worked. Grandfather loved to travel. He taught two generations of family to play chess. Granddaddy helped Elaine catch her first fish and helped her learn how to dribble a basketball downhill on our driveway in Tennessee. Granddaddy also helped Laura build an Erector Set wave machine for her Science Fair Project in middle school. On a trip to Michigan, Granddaddy went to an air show where he was proud to show us the B-29 Bomber that he had worked on in his early years. He taught us to treat everyone with respect, to look people in the eye and learn what you could from them, even if they were Michigan fans. He was strong, quiet when he needed to be, knowledgeable, quick to tease, and offer a smile.

 

Memories of Roger Wolfe by Renee Mettle from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Grandfather’s travel photographs and stories opened the world to me. He taught me that one key to a good life was to experience new places. Grandfather loved to make us laugh. He started stories with “When I was a little girl...” Every summer he mentioned the high “humida-did-dity.” Grandfather loved learning. He always wanted to know what I was studying in school - especially science. He asked me questions until I had to use an encyclopedia to find the answer. We learned together. Grandfather loved puzzles. He could stare at jigsaw puzzle pieces and pick out exactly the right one.

Ohio, Birth Index, 1908-1964 about Roger E Wolfe

Name: Roger E Wolfe

Birth Date: 1 Sep 1920 [sic, 1 May 1920]

Birth Place: Pickaway

State File Number: 1920046743

Additional Information: Worthen

[Note: Several other records below show Roger's date-of-birth to be 1 May 1920, including his U.S. Social Security Death Record. It is hard to explain the date-of-birth on this Ohio Birth Index entry, except as a recording error.]

 

Roger Wolfe was born May 1, 1920 at the farm originally purchased by his Great-Great Grandfather Phillip. His childhood was spent at working on a nearby farm purchased by his father Earl. After graduating from Jackson County High School, Roger drove solo across the country on Route 66 to Los Angeles, California to attend the Aero Industries Technical Institute (1939-1940) to start a career in the aircraft industry. He paid his tuition by playing basketball. After graduation, Roger took a job at an airplane plant in Buffalo, N.Y. (1940-1941) to be closer to his future bride Jessie. His work focused on control surfaces for the Navy’s “Hell Diver” bomber. When a new factory (Curtis Wright Co.) that built this plane opened in Columbus, Ohio, Roger was among the original 100 men from Buffalo who started the factory. He was promoted to General Foreman and worked at Curtis Wright from 1941-1944. He married Jessie in June 21, 1941. Their daughter Suzanne was born on June 2, 1943. Roger joined the Air Corp (U.S. Army Air Force) in 1944 and was assigned to the Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico. While in Alamogordo, he taught himself plumbing so that he could get a home for his family on base. He recalled the whole family being awoken by a “big bang” which was rumored to be an explosion at an ammunition dump. Only later did he learn that the explosion they heard was the first atomic bomb test. He went to school in Denver, Colorado to learn how to service and maintain B-29 bombers (1944). While he was on emergency furlough due to the death of his sister Josephine, the rest of his unit deployed to the Pacific.  Roger was sent to Europe for 6 months in Ferstenfeldbuk, Germany (1946).  He chose to be a cook rather than take guard duty.  After discharge from the military, he started building houses and doing remodeling.  Daughter Joy was born March 25, 1948.  With partner Paul Seymour, he formed the Columbus Home Maintenance Co. in 1954.  Roger sold his share of Columbus Home Maintenance in 1960 and bought an interest in a plumbing business (J.A. Myers Co.).  Roger worked for J.A. Myers from 1960 to 1980 and became Vice President.  After retirement in 1980, Roger and Jessie focused their time on travel and family.  They moved to Brooksville, FL from 1982-1984 where they

enjoyed golfing and playing bridge, but later moved back to Columbus. They kept an apartment in Columbus but spent much of their time traveling in their RV. By the early 1990’s they had traveled extensively in North America and Europe, and explored South America, Australia and Asia. The death of Jessie in September of 1993 was devastating for Roger after 51 years of marriage. He joined a senior center and met Garnet Joslin, a widow. Roger married Garnet on December 23, 1994. They shared interests in travel, golf and chess. Garnet convinced Roger to take up ballroom dancing. Declining health and blindness made life difficult for Roger in his final years. In 2004, Roger said “I consider myself very fortunate to have lived during a period of development and most of all to have such a wonderful family...” Roger died on July 6, 2010.   [Compiled by Renee Mettle from the archive of Suzanne (Wolfe) Mettle]

 

Thoughts of My Dad by Joy Johnson from Roger Wolfe Memorial Service July 11, 2010

 

Growing up on Elizabeth Avenue in Columbus, I remember how handy Dad was with any projects. He showed me how to use an electric drill and power saw. Knowing how to hit a nail came in especially handy when he helped Larry and me add a deck to our house in Knoxville. He was a talker, but helpful even when we wired an unfinished basement. When I was around eight he built me very high wooden stilts to walk around on, no one else had anything like that. Dad worked long days and on week-ends, so my sister Suzanne and I especially liked our annual camping trips. No one else had a school bus camper to brag about. Throughout high school and eventually OSU, he chauffeured me to classes and was even cheerful at 6:30 am on the way to an early class. Larry and our girls, Elaine and Laura, have moved a lot but Jessie and Dad always traveled to see us and be part of our family.

Notes for Suzanne Kay Wolfe:

Photos in Album, Pages: 12,71-73

 

Suzanne Kay Wolfe was born on June 2, 1943 in Columbus, Ohio to Jessie R. and Roger E. Wolfe. As a young girl she enjoyed visits to see her relatives in Circleville, OH, especially her grandmother Josephine Wolfe and her farm. She was a good student, but shy. She liked her pet rabbit and riding horses. She first met Dennis Mettle at First English Lutheran Church when they both were in high school, but didn’t date him until her college years. She worked as a Kroger (grocery) check-out girl as a high school senior (1961). She earned a degree in education from Ohio State University (1964) and a teaching certificate for high school math and English. She married Dennis Mettle on October 23, 1964 in Columbus, OH. Suzanne taught junior high school mathematics from 1964 to 1968. She retired from classroom teaching to raise a family. Her first child, Renee, was born on January 2, 1969. A second daughter, Diane, was born on February 23, 1971. While being a full-time homemaker, Suzanne maintained her teaching certificate and became a private math tutor in the evenings. Suzanne developed an interest in genealogy, which became a life-long project. She became a volunteer librarian at the Franklin County Genealogical Society (FCGS) and co-wrote the “Genealogical Researcher’s Manual with special references for using the O.H.S. Library” (1981). Eventually she began giving lectures at genealogical workshops and became an editor (1990-94) for “The Franklintonian.” Her interest in local history led her to independently research the history of Franklinton, OH. Suzanne retired from tutoring in 1989 after 16 years. Her interests included gardening, remodeling the family home, and reading historical fiction/romance novels. Suzanne died on July 11, 2012.  [Written by Renee Mettle, Sept 2014]

 

Memories of Suzanne Wolfe from Renee Mettle, Sept. 7, 2014

 

My mother, Suzanne Wolfe, was exceptionally organized, loving, and always put family before herself. She had a logical mind that allowed her to succeed as a math teacher, but her true passion was for history. Her world centered on her home and family; she preferred privacy. When she did travel, she preferred the “back route” and places of historical interest. She was always busy, whether it was finishing chores, working on a genealogical or historical project or tending her garden. Her favorite indulgences were reading, Coke, and M&M’s. Her legacy includes two successful daughters and an amazing collection of family history.

 

Memories of Suzanne Wolfe from Laura Cross, Sept. 14, 2014

 

Aunt Suzanne was immensely creative in her organization techniques, and loved to create new landscapes in her yard. She found contentment in the little things, noticing the smallest details of a flower, or little chipmunk running by. I appreciate the passion she had for preserving our family’s history and am happy that my children will be able to learn about their ancestors in “living color” as Suzanne had a talent for finding interesting stories about relatives. I remember Aunt Suzanne creating fun games to keep us younger cousins entertained and continued the tradition when I started to bring my children to visit her in Columbus, whether it be Christmas Bingo, or outdoor putt-putt tournaments. I loved to see Aunt Suzanne laugh, she was a very expressive, independent person who loved to research and find out everything there was to know about a topic of interest. Over the years she taught me a lot about gardening and I hope to pass that green thumb along to my children in her memory.

Joyce Elaine Wolfe is the daughter of Roger Earl and Jessie R. Dresbach Wolfe. She married Larry Alva Johnson.

 

Joyce Elaine Wolfe was born March 25, 1948 to Roger and Jessie Wolfe in Columbus, OH. She married Larry Alva Johnson on August 29, 1969 in Columbus, OH. Their first daughter, Elaine, was born on October 22, 1972, in New Kensington, Pennsylvania. Their second daughter, Laura, was born on February 12, 1976 in Knoxville, Tennessee. Joy and Larry have lived in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Michigan, as well as Florida, where they now reside. Joy described her life this way: “Larry and I, having lived in a variety of states, had the opportunity to have very interesting jobs. All my paid employment has been focused on a variety of ages. This has included seniors as a nursing home activity director in Michigan and Tennessee as well as working with preschoolers as a church preschool director in Ft. Myers, Florida. Elementary age children were my focus as a before-and-after school program director. I always enjoyed using a creative and fun approach to all my jobs. Every state we lived in had challenges, but usually new friends too. I'm a professional volunteer here in Florida over the last 19 years. I am grateful for my life and family. I am currently a puppet ministry director through church doing shows monthly for Head Start, a nursing home, and for our church preschool. I am glad to have started and given puppet materials to four locations in the states, the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. Hopefully I inherited my dad’s sense of humor and mother’s organizational skills. God has been good to me!!”   [Contributed by Joy Johnson, Sept. 2014]
